I got wet.

[NorthLoop 14420]

Rained steady the entire day but my gauge only has an inch in it. Whatever I'll take the long cool day of sprinkling anytime. 

[Brisketexan 106610]

Attended the Austin FC match last night.  Wore our rain jackets....didn't much matter.  It was a steady, at times reasonably heavy, rain.  We ended up pretty soaked, only dry in the parts completely covered by the rain jacket.  Was still fun, even though the team has clearly made an affirmative and committed decision to suck.  Ditches were full, lot of runoff, so we got a good volume of rain.

[Orange&White 5563]

We moved our 1:30 tee time at Star Ranch to 3:30 to miss the heavier rain chances. It didn't matter.

Rained .35" during our round, which may not sound like a lot in your rain gauge, but it will pretty well soak you on the golf course. (89, 3 hours 25 minutes)

Even with that said, I won't ever complain about a 76 degree golf round in the afternoon in June in Central Texas.

[utee94 16065]

We got 1.2" in NW Travis.  Normally 10-12 hours of non-stop rain will result in more than that, but I can't complain.  

[jimmyjazz 46965]

At my house, the potential 14" rain bomb dropped 1.4", so I assume they just put the decimal point in the wrong place.

[Pam Cummings 9823]

It apparently rained enough to flood the golf course in Manor, although I think you could accidentally spill a cup of water and flood that place.

[UnivTex34 1765]

2.87 inches in 78748. I was quite stunned when the gauge read that this morning. 

[Cajun 11771]

1.9" in my back yard here at the Canyon Lake MethODome.

Why do you punish your self? And not talking about the rain.

Meh, we have fun at the matches, even when the team sucks.

pouring again here in west Buder

[Tailgate 3054]

Another good pour in 78739. Emptied rain gauge before this recent rain and 3.5” last 36 hours.

[NorthLoop 14420]

Couple of gully washers came through here this afternoon. Added an inch.

[HenryJames 67113]

Rain, imo.

[jimmyjazz 46965]

Bastards.  0.01" in the last 12 hours (78731).

[MissingInAction 25478]

183 & 290 area

[Hate 20232]

The July-Sept outlook isn't as gloomy as it once was. 

[Hate 20232]

This map is updated early Thursday morning, so it won't reflect a lot of rain over the West Texas region.  This map will look very different next week.

[troph 25088]

1.75 inches over two days, totally worth it. Lawn is happy again, I’m sure it will be angry in 2-3 days. 

[Orange&White 5563]

Day two of golf in the rain. Lions. (84, 3:55). Luckily we were just finishing 15 and we're able to get under the shelter by the 11th green to ride it out for 15 minutes or so.

Let he who has not gotten in a shouting match with their significant other about dildos cast the first stone.

Maybe if you ask nicely she'll use it on you.

C'mon down....

Huge news ….

We are now drought free in the Coastal Bend, at least when it comes to our soil moisture. This means you can take a break from watering for a while. Lake levels remain low. There was a boost to a combined level of 26% right after the rain from Tropical Storm Alberto and we have remained fairly steady since last Thursday. Check out the forecast here: https://www.kiiitv.com/article/weather/corpus-christi-south-texas-weather-forecast/503-b11f8b3b-9e41-47f7-8b47-bb47572338c1

Weak front that came through. SCW mentioned it midweek - no cool or dry air, just cloud cover and some rain

This is not Beryl shit 

[InkaUtexas 26794]

Shit west of Austin not moving much.

Man, we both know you and me are not getting anything. I just do not want to water tonight. Is that too much to ask?

[gsoda3 3358]

I decided to power rush our living room rug today.  You're welcome.

Just rained here for about 90 seconds. Probably all I get.

[Red Five 41593]

It's been raining in SW Austin for three hours. Was there even rain in the forecast today?

[3adays 454]

While everyone is getting their dicks all hard over Beryl, this July shower in the Austin area deserves a hat tip. 

[SquishMitten 10493]

If Beryl turns a bit west, this rain could turn out to be why the lakes fill up. Almost at an inch in west lake so far. Fingers crossed!
