In Castlegate. At 2.30pm, my rain gauge had 2" in it and I did not dump it out. I just checked and it now has 6.5".

That lightening was nuts. I was driving to campus to South CS during it. Took me way longer than it should have (but thats okay). One of the thunder booms shook my car.

I wish I had emptied my rain gauge this AM. I moved it as I think the sprinklers may have been contributing.

Doesn't look like this is over. Castlegate folks better get the boat ready…

Good soaking in Carter Creek! KBTX says repeat likely tomorrow (fingers crossed).

Got about an inch behind CS Lowes.

Don't need to fill the pool, and grass is watered for the week.

Grateful for it. Heat dome moving in circa Independence Day and it's gonna be brutal.

5.5 hours now without power. CSU is working on it. Wasn't planning on tossing a lot of stuff out of the fridge tonight but it could be worse.

Ugh that sucks. Hope you get power back and can limit throwing food out!

Has been a long time since I remember a late June day where we had thunder rolling for hours. We enjoyed it and had the tv off and our kiddos doing puzzles while we read!

I'm just annoyed because I was going to cut the grass yesterday. Then it rained, so I was going to cut it today.

2" of rain in two days means I'll probably have to wait until at least Friday for the low spots to get dry enough. At which point I'll be mowing a hay field.

2.8" near TP HEB! We lost power briefly, which isn't fun when you WFH and have multiple meetings...

June 26 and the entire Brazos valley is greener than a dollar bill.

As rough as it can be sometimes with the thunder, lightning, etc., I never turn down rain. I will dry up in July but it's been a great June.

Maybe, maybe not. Have you been around here long? Never know what the dome is gonna do.

The dome is putting in some work right now.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Was going to hit The Cove after work today but they closed it "due to weather." Ok.

Lot of noise but we got Domed. That's OK, though, the ground is very saturated.

Hope the rains come back soon.

Good bit of wet stuff in my area of Bryan. Knew I should've mowed when I had the chance.

Another 0.8" east of Bryan of 1179.

My grass is now a hayfield in a swamp.

ETA: that's 2.8" over the last 3 days.

On my walk in Castlegate this morning, just had to shake my head at the number of sprinkler systems that were running,

Most folks with a sprinkler have no idea what is going on.

And the built in rain delay is just a day or 2; with the heavy rains we have had it needs to delay a week or 2.

Since I'm going to try to go to The Cove again today, that will ensure more storms blow through. Maybe I should wash my car for added insurance.

I'm washing and vacuuming mine before we leave for vacation in the morning so it'll probably pour.

Dang nice pour over here. Worth the chigger infestation (the incoming heat should take care of that though).
