Wichita Falls water

Postby LibraryLady » Fri May 22, 2015 6:01 am

Looks like they are on their way to enough water for the city.

Sister says Lake Kickapoo released some water from the lake yesterday.
She was in no danger of flooding yesterday, but amazed at the amount of rain that fell.

I just saw CBS report and there are many people in shelters getting ready for a downpour this weekend. So, now I'm hoping the coming rain is a gentle rainfall. Feast or famine in WF....

I do know that Corpus Christi area is flooding like crazy and the usual pattern is that it arrives in Corpus going west to east. That would include the hill country. I can find out in just a bit since a good friend lives in Bandera.

I have a couple of clients who are fishing guides. One on Buchanan and one on LBJ. I need to ask them how things are. I know it's been grim for a goodly number of years.

Bwahahahahahahaaaa! :mrgreen:

Seriously though, it's a good thing for WF to finally have rainfall. I can't imagine how hard it's been for the people in that area the last few years.

Llano river at Junction on a rise, the Colorado below marble falls will see water soon. Dry hole called O C Fisher out here gained 25 feet so maybe we all getting some water.

Glad for you. The pastures out here in western Ellis county are the best we have seen in the last 15 years. I could double my herd size, but I will not do that.

My centenarian grandmother just commented she was tired of all this rain, but it sure beat the Dust Bowl.

You would either have tomtit the lottery or rob a bank to do that.

I sold out of bulls last week and what they are bringing is pretty hard to fathom. Prices are good for a while unless Washington screws it up somehow. I think they hope it continues so we just quit eating meat.

I darn sure don't have the money to buy like that. I was meaning that our pastures could handle that many.
I have about 15 head that need to go to the sale in West. Probably in another or so. Heck, I would get stuck just backing up to the pens.

Dallas had almost 3 in, McKinney 3/4 in. So Plano has something in between. Some more rain tomorrow, 1 to 3 in the metromess. About 30% for the rest of the week.
Big flooding problem last night in South Texas on the Blanco around Wemberly south of Austin. They are calling it historic flooding.

I just talked to my cousin that lives in WF. He says everyone regrets their flooding but are also thrilled that they now have water in their lake.
