Did you start humming a song from 1962?

How did you know? You must have ESPN or something.

Good Morning. 0805, partly cloudy, 73F with 96% humidity. Forecast high of 82F with 50% chance of thunderstorms today, and a low of 69F tonight. A nice day of showers yesterday. We got about 1/4". The next 4 days is forecast to be about the same, then 2 days of sun followed by 4 days of less than .2"

Gary, happy birthday.

Exactly what Larro said.

60yo and this cold is kicking my butt, and now one of the horses has one... go for it guys, I left myself open for it

How are the county roads? Any high water problems?

Yes. Hyw 21 was closed, flooded and a car sunk in my cousins pond (it is open now). 1624 at the Yegua creek has been impassable for several days. and the W. Yegua is lapping at the bridge. CR 107,108, 106, FM696 and my road have been closed for hours after the storms each day at their low water crossings. (And thats just on this side of the county.) But after the drought nobody is complaining - except for the people that did not turn around and almost drowned.

Another 1/2" thunderstorm this morning and it will continue to rain most of the day. I've only had 4" this week and according to COCORahs have had the least about of rain in the county. Others just miles away have gotten up to 2X more.

And Happy Birthday, Gary.

Beautiful morning. Got about half inch of rain last night. Have 200 trees to plant. Better to go now before the next storm hits us this afternoon.

still need my mid life crisis car. Before I get too old...
something small, not a motorcycle, with lots of hp.

Now that you are out of road salt country, you could have a nice old car. 1929-1935 maybe, back when cars were cars. You need something around the place that's older than you. :cool2:

I could use some of that rain. I need to get the watering can out in May. Crazy.

Pouring down now again, over 1.5" this morning.
Ron I found this site. Austin road closures and low water crossing status it includes the major roads in Lee County (east of Austin) also.

It does not include gravel roads - like my county road - which is now flooded. It's nice to be 50' above the flooding road.

No need to be sorry, got more happy birthdays from you guys then my family. They usually at least text me but nothing yet. If they needed a hand with something, they don't forget their old dad then.:laughing:

Nice site. Hope you stocked up on things. You may be stuck at home for a few days.
