Blanco river is flooding wimberley
Oh damn.
Our place west of Blanco on the river got > 11" today and the river is way way up.
Got another 1.5" at our ranch north of Junction today - makes 7" for the month of May. Pasture so wet it is spongy. Biggest mosquitoes that I've have ever seen here. Hope a lot of this water makes it into Lake Travis!
Global warming much?
Just saw a video on fb of a car in boerne get swept away supposedly with people inside. The creek/river was moving FAST. I cannot fathom why people would drive in that. People were running down the banks to help, but car was flipping end over end. No way those people made it out.
Looks like it's about to hit us here in Bryan in a little bit. That horseshoe in the radar doesn't look good.

El Nino cycle - not global warming
Had an inch of rain north of Austin between 9:30 and 10:30
Not possible! The global climate alarmist informed us all that Texas was now becoming an arid cousin of Arizona - if you recall.
Is this what the libs predicted?
after dancing on the eastern edge of the storms and pretty much fishing all day, it is absolutely pouring in Robertson Co.
GOING TO 5 MILE DAM TOMORROW IN SAN MARCOS. THE BLANCO WILL BE ROCKING.
CAN NOT WAIT TO boogie board the falls

You know your getting older when your looking at and discussing the weather.
Flash flood emergency for the wimberly area in Hays county. Water rescues underway. Yikes.
quote:KVUE showed earlier that Doppler estimates were just under a foot of rain in a few hours just north of Blanco.

I hate Austin energy! We've been without power since 9:40 or so and it seems like any half way decent storm knocks out our power. I am glad I had my laptop charged, but I don't know how much longer my phone/hotspot is going to last.
We're still getting pounded with rain. The wind (earlier) was the craziest I have ever seen here in Austin -- it was swirling and even threw my heavy glass table off the patio.

Wimberly is flooding right now. Flood stage for the Blanco is 13'. It is currently at just under 33' and rising. The all time record is 33.3'...

cats and dogs here in Dallas...I'll probably have a few more inches overnight
KSAT reporting the two teenage occupants made it out alive.
I'm in South Austin and while it definitely was raining very hard and it's been steady most of the day at least, I never ran into MAJOR issues. Thankfully my complex is on some high ground and I'm not first floor.
Crazy to see some pics and video of what was happening outside and especially what was happening just down the road along the rivers and especially in Wimbley

My dogs food bowl Has 3"+ in it from after 4pm in LH
39 feet at Wimberly and rising.
Damn!!! Thats all of downtown!!
Another line coming from the west across the hill country.
Got 2.08" in the last 24 hours
Dad was born and raised on our place on the Blanco and he said that this was the highest he'd ever seen it.
This is an incredible storm.
It's still going. More rain. It's unreal.

Just saw that, ridiculous with more rain coming.
Labeling it catastrophic. That area is going to look post Nawlins Katrina'esque in the morning. I feel terrible for the people and crops but at the same time, Texas has needed this for a looooong time. These past few months will pay dividends for a few years to come.
Now forecast to create at 41.5 feet, 40.5 feet currently and still rising
Saying they expect over 30 feet in Luling by morning.
My parents live in Wimberley but we're all here in Port A this weekend. Neighbors in South River subdivision saying its unreal how much water there is.
