A guy from the Brazos River Authority said last summer that Lake Waco was losing about half an inch a day to evaporation

I'd just like to point out that I'm not part of the argument about whether or not "rain bomb" is a stupid or annoying phrase, I don't care one way or the other.

I'm simply commenting that the first time I ever heard it used was about the Marble Falls rain event in 2007, and that it was not used regarding the Memorial Day flood of 1981, at the time of that event.

You know, for the record.

Lake Buchanan up over 6 feet since Sunday morning and more to come.  We may actually be able to get to the water without walking 10 minutes.

Latest Euro model could really bode well for Lake Buchanan over the next week. Three inches of rain over the watershed would bri g it up another foot or two.

As wet as it is now, that 3" would pretty much all run off. Fingers crossed.

The forecast will shift that and dump it all over East Texas.  Y'all know how this goes.

We just had the perfect bullseye rain bomb on Lake Buchanan. Cheer up Eeyore, good things can happen.

Yeah, finally the LCRA decides to favor Lake Buchanan.
Here are the latest models for the next week:

Looks like an E Texas flood, and just a light rain for the lakes. As we should expect.

They'll have access to sufficient water once the Alliance Regional Water Authority finishes out construction of their Phase 1B, though the next phase will probably be coming up sooner than originally planned

The Austin rain dome has scarred me

You moved from Houston in part due to the rain, and now you are in Austin complaining about the lack of rain??

Shoot... when you move here there are certain things you bitch about.  I bitch about the rain dome.  I choose not to bitch about old Austin.  Also, every time I see craziness like what's going on in north Houston, I tell my wife... "I'll take this over that any day"

Just bustin balls. Yes, I’d take a dry house over one with water in it every day. 
 

and I still bitch about old Austin. I’ll never move back to Austin.

That looks like it will arrive split in half and miss Austin just in time for my dogs to wake me up freaking out at 3:00 AM.

This guy just said there are reports of baseball and tennisball size hail, driven by 80-90 mph winds knocking out windows, associated with that storm near Brady. Also, a tornado warning...
