I think Texas was getting our rain for the last few years. For the last few weeks we have been getting rain almost every day. I'm thinking at least 12 of the last 14 days were have gotten rainfall and sometimes several times a day.

I finally found the silver lining... we have been 100*+ for the last 2 weeks, and thanks to the storm it disturbed that pattern, and we are only supposed to be 94* for the next 5 days. :)

With only 30 percent of rain today, it's pouring down outside now!

Applied, I am glad you got the rain and the wind was not too bad. This should get things shooting well.

No wonder I haven't seen that dang humped beasty. Heck Steve the Senia Bean is in stress here. Which is the good news since I am try to eradicate it. Fun things you can do with a back hoe rip them d@#m things out of the ground. Oh and it makes it easy t o plant large Boo's too.
Any one know what a tumbleweed looks like when it is growing I expect to see them next. Where where is the rain. Whatched a squall on the radar today coming right for my place from way out in the Gulf morfe than two hours it ran. About a mile from my place it disapated.

Lightning struck the transformer next door lastnight. Lost power for 4hrs. It sounded like somebody blew off a shotgun in my living room. My dogs freaked out. Typical Florida eve. Feel for you guys in Texas. We're due for a hurricane any day.
