I bet we have had 3" since 9 am, up here SW of Ft. Worth. Probably 5-6" in the last week. In a flash flood watch currently.

Look at the watershed dividing lines.  Its just cruel.

[MissingInAction 24424]

Austin is being smote from the earth by drought, freezes, and tech bros.

[HenryJames 65563]

Rain in 78722, imo.

[GreenspointTexas 9386]

ETX getting destroyed. This has gotta be the wettest start to any year they have ever had

[TexArcher 37103]

I am under solid green on the Doppler and not a drop.

Where does that red blob to the right flow to?

[HenryJames 65563]

Pampa

[Storm the Field 5256]

That's a whole lot of green and red over a wide swath of Texas. Heading ENE. Was supposed to rain all day in Houston. Currently no major rainfall predicted until 9:00 p.m. at the earliest. 

[Paper_jam 828]

You can see that the line north of Austin put the brakes on and doesn't want to come any further south. Keep the hail away but I need some rain to wash in the ironite and weed/feed I just put down in anticipation of this.

Chad Briscoe better prepare both anuses.

We've gotten pummeled twice today in Hewitt.  About an hour each time and I have a wunderground right by my house showing 2.2 inches.  Water fucking everywhere.

Brazos actually.

[4th&Five 41243]

raining hard af near lakeway.

[Radical Larry 28462]

Force field is down in NW Austin

[HenryJames 65563]

Dark, imo.

[KaiserSoze 997]

It has been raining for a couple of hours now in 78704- a mix of light/steady/heavy showers... pretty dark here too.

Pouring in my part of Round Rock, which also will flow to the Brazos via Brush Creek…..

[texasdago 7463]

Wow... SW Austin getting it now

[GhostOfTomJoad 9252]

Stuck on the northbound metrorail at Howard Lane. Signals are down plus high winds. Reason #1 why you always take a leak before getting on the train.

[utee94 15722]

1.1" in a little under an hour at my house here in NW Travis, and still going.

It's never going to stop raining!

Happy to be wrong.

[NorthLoop 13954]

Don't worry, we're keeping the forcefield nice and warm here in NB.

Hopefully it kept the hail away, but fuck if we didn't get some sideways rain in Central Austin.

 

[hornian 5166]

That was a F'in gullywasher in 78731 (near Far West). Sideways rain, minor road flooding, the whole nine yards. One of the Hydromet gauges near me say 2.6 inches, the other 1.3. My backyard gauge says 1.5 inches. So definitely a "bullseye". Rained out my kiddo's kickball game, and scared the crap outta my pre-K kiddo getting off the bus at about 3:30.  

[Deej 76218]

Storm took down about 2/3 of my enormous fig tree. Damnit.

How many Bradford Pears met their demise today?

 

[Ten Bears 2443]

Not enough imo

[jimmyjazz 45206]

Yep, ~ 1.3" here (360/2222).  Better than nothing.

[Ten Bears 2443]

[NorthLoop 13954]

Slight drizzle in NB for about 20 min. Yay.

[Armybrat 40559]

1.5” in 78717 (Brushy Creek, west side of Round Rock).

Last night around 10 pm we had a brief .2” shower that also brought about 6 or 7 minutes of light pea-size hail. 
This is by our back door under the patio cover:
