2024 Rain Thread: All Your El Nino Are Belong to Us

[Mrs Whiggins 13050]

Under.      2.15"

I almost went with 1.25" but it's warmer so may pull a little more moisture out.

My wunderground forecast for NW Austin currently shows 3.02" of rain between this Sunday and next Saturday.

Call your shots. Over/Under?

I am feeling optimistic and will take the over. I'll be using the LCRA gauge at Bull Creek/360 for my measurements.

Always bet the under in Austin

Normally I think that. But I think the nino is kicking in now.

[NorthLoop 14304]

Forecast has already decreased today from yesterday. That will continue every day. Next week we'll get .75 inches and the Mississippi will flood. 

[Mrs Whiggins 13050]

It's sitting at a little over two and a half inches now, so I'll be lucky if it hits my mark. Shoulda gone with the lower one like I thought.

It’s looking like we will barely freeze tomorrow night (30 for a few hours) instead of the 22 degrees predicted a few days ago.

[InkaUtexas 26383]

Means it will be 16 and no one is prepared! is HEB open? I need toilet paper, about 200 rolls, and 15 cases of water for a few days.

[Orange&White 5557]

The daily rain amounts have changed slightly, but my forecast still shows me getting 3" between Sunday and Saturday.

It also still shows a low of 23* tomorrow night.

[Mrs Whiggins 13050]

I'm showing the NW Austin rain report (from the prev page) at a little over two inches  for the period of Sun-Sat, so the shrinkage continues....

3-4" east of town, 1.5-3" west of town.

Steady rain in NW Travis, 0.55" so far.  

Come to Butthead.

[South Austin 52746]

Heavy rain in Brentwood. I’m perfectly fine with a week of this.

3.1” so far in south Austin.  Have to go reposition the trash bins since the water in the gutter moved them.

[AUS-97HORN 11884]

its been constant water dripping into my gutters all night in 78757...   3 or 4 days of this kind of rain would be glorious for getting all the ground extra moist to start the year

[Biff Tannen 45778]

Of course lakes are getting minimal help.  

[txduck87 1000]

[troph 24929]

Never fear there is always bad news with the good news around here… lakes are like this…

 

and downstream gets this…

 

 

[utee94 15897]

It's never going to stop raining.
