Live Feed: https://www.ksat.com/live/watch-live-llano-river-risingBridge in Kingsland already washed out. The Hwy 71 bridge in Llano in danger too. Over 10 inches of rain in already saturated areas. It's all headed to Lake LBJ and beyond. People are in danger here again.

Dammit. I am heading down to Kerrville from north of there in a few days. Dad is in the hospital and rain is supposed to keep coming. I have to cross the Llano, the Lampassas, the Colorado, the Brazos to get there. Sister is right near the Guadeloupe I have to cross to see her and nephew- who I wanted to hunt with, is actually on the Medina. Was pre-occupied thinking about Dad and didn't even consider the flooding.

The Kingsland bridge is gonna throw a monkey wrench into everything from Llano to Marble Falls. Highway Dept will probably get moving PDQ on it though.

That’s the bridge that cuts over to SH 71. Remember when the SH 16 bridge washed out at Sandy creek there at Oxford btwn Llano and Fritztown. Allnthat went right into Kingsland.

You Texicans are never happy are you? Feast or famine!  That one's not coming my way on the Llano River. My brother's ranch is in Llano though. So wet here, I'm afraid I'll set off the flood warnings if I take a leak outside. We are still behind on annual rainfall by about 12" right now. We stay dry for months at a time, and then you think you need an ark...

Highways from Mason to Fredericksburg and from Mason to Llano are shut down. Castell is on an island. ..

Go all way to 29’at Burnet and head to llano. If lake Buchanan isn’t over 29 there at the lighthouse slough. They may have the 16 bridge closed in Llano !!!

Don't say it...... Yeah! Id stay off 16. Just spoke with rancher friend lives on east side of Devils toenail on Sandy creek. Just downstream from the 16 crossing. Says Sandy is as high as he’s ever seen it. So Im sure that 16 bridge is history too!
