I am thinking of all the folks there!
Looks like maybe SEVEN inches or more...not good.

9. We've been getting it off & on |
|
feeder bands started coming in last night...if we get anything, it will be tomorrow late afternoon/evening. If it rains heavily, I'm staying put. The street drainage sucks in this town!

12. Everything should be OK |
|
the current track has it going in about 100 miles south of Brownsville. Granted things can change, but it's looking like it will just be a big rain event for the Valley and places north up to maybe Austin.

14. thanks! for your thoughts |
|
It will more than likely be a flood event, hopefully nothing major like Hurricane Dolly was a couple of years ago, I still haven't finished fixing my house from 2008's flood from hurricane dolly. Side note: if this hurricane stalls, it can be a real bad flood even as far north as San Antonio. Jeez, this hurricane is not strong wind-wise, but it is large with bands already reaching up there in the hill country... stay safe!

been a reader for years, (just recently added my posts to give another note to the cacophony of posts/opinions around here) seem we all march to different beats of different drums (especially here at du),
