Cool post man. Thanks for that. KRIO was still on the air, actually it still is but I think it is a religious deal now, for my first years in the RGV and I always liked listening to it.
The flooding on the Mexican side for this last storm was really bad as well. Worse than in the RGV, we just don't hear about it as much now that not many people go to Reynosa or Matamoros much. If the RGV and the Mexican side ever get a storm like Beulah again it is going to be a big, big mess. As the Whitlock guy mentioned, the concrete and the changes in the drainage patterns are going to play hell with having the water run off. In a big rain the Levee system keeps water in to a degree as well.
Interesting time for sure.
