How’s everything down there ST?

We have a big blob coming our way this morning - had some ugly stuff spawned by Alex late yesterday, knocked out electric. Although, it doesn’t take much to take that down where I live.

I’m not real crazy about all this rain as the lawn will grow again which means it needs to be mowed again!!

Still raining, I think only one more limb down this morning. Never had the flooding rains with this storms, yet anyway. Remember one several years back where the rains didn’t come until a week after the storm was long gone.

Rain totals so far and it hasn't stopped.

Do you think all the rain will flush clean the Rio Grande River?

Hubby and I left for Denver where he had to work. Checking in for an update. Had a alert on my cell for flash floods in the greater Houston area. I hope we are not looking at a rain/flood Allison type complication. Will keep checking in. We will be returning to Houston Sunday. I think the forecast is for the rain to have moved on.

Hope all of you are OK.

I really needs to be further up river, but it sure will help. Will slow border crossings for a day or two also. ;)

My daughter says it’s been raining quite a lot in Ft. Worth. Guess it’s even more for you.

Thanks for your reply SouthTexas. I haven’t been online for a few days. Looks like Padre did OK. Brownsville had flooding.

My daughter in Harlingen had a huge Palm tree fall over. I had some wind and over 5 inches of rain.

Sadly, two Mexicans were killed - that I know of.
