My wife commutes from here in Kessler Park up to Richardson and said it looked like the apocalypse this morning with cars abandoned all over the city.

5.5" in our rain gauge this morning around 7 before I left. I didn't think to empty it and it only goes to 6" so the rest of the morning is not gonna read, but it's for sure over 6" by now

Yep. My house in Plano got 1" from last night to now. I'll take it though.

Just over 2 inches in Lewisville in the last 18 hours - most after midnight. I'll take it!

Almost feels like Fall football weather out there. Rain, cool, cloudy. Love it

You can google Dallas rain gauges and the city has them placed all over.

Turned into a **** show out there. 7-8 in across Tarrant County, 10+ inches in parts of Dallas.

Now if only we could have spread this out across the past couple months.

Lakes will look a lot different in the next few days when runoff all accumulates.

Hopefully this boosts my veggie garden into a late summer/fall producing phase.

Did this board over do a bit with all the car washes and extra sprinkler runs?

The scenes from West 7th are hilarious. I lived there for several years with zero flooding issues. This is why you don't hire the cheap development contractor and spend more for Randy Cody.

Amazing what rain will do. Most of my yellow grass from 2 days ago is now green again.

Somebody should properly study your findings.

We've come full circle. They did a ton of work last century to alleviate the Trinity floods from way back in the day, and now we just have simple urban flooding due to developer issues.

Depends on what area of the "trails". They've flooded to the trail I'm riverpark area a few times last decade.

They said where the cleark fork and west fork come together, so that'd be just north of downtown, right?

It's already gone back down, but at least 2 cars flooded trying to drive through it. Both had to get towed off.

Radar seems like it's all moving out now. Any more waves expected to pop up?

We finally made a small dent on the scoreboard with some steady rain today, but grand total topped out at a combined 1.4". Absolutely amazed by the variations
