 My guess is that it will only rain, and that it will pour hard when it does, when I’ve got my kids out trick or treating. As soon as we get home it’ll stop.

Except in Bee Cave, where it will rain gently and thoroughly all week long, providing a thorough soaking but never flooding, except from 4PM - 10 PM on Halloween night when it will be gloriously dry and clear, temps in the low 70s, and a choir of angels singing whilst delivering free beer to every household.

Dug out my sprinkler. Priming the ground for our downpour this week.

It won’t rain for shit until Saturday at 1pm right around the time Austin Food + Wine Fest starts, and then it’ll pour the next two days.

[ChickenSandwich 9964]

It will rain Thursday night

No big deal. All the attendees shop at REI and have plenty of rain gear they do not use often.

West Houston got an actual soak tonight. First meaningful rain since Beryl I think.

Fuck this rain event and the weather weasels. Rain keeps getting pushed back like our O Line vs. Georgia (too soon?).

Of course, we will flood now. Monday into Tuesday morning.

Solid gully washer on 78070-6042

Houston finally got a proper shitty houston soaker. All soccer playoff games cancelled after 2p on the west siiiieeeed

[MonkeyDoughnut 10809]

Been raining on and off heavy in south Houston burbs and it's been spectacular. Been way too long.

[miguelito 11509]

2.75" in Boerne, and it just started up again.

 

[Blotto 24040]

My front yard might be reaching new levels of dead. It wasnt much to start with as the weeds and various grasses rarely make it past July, but now it looks like you are staring at a black and white photo of my yard. Its impressive.

Wunderground went from like .5  to 2.5"+ for west Austin.

I am skeptical.

[LCHorn 2751]

We got both rain and sunshine together in ‘59.

[irishtexan 11712]

Wunderground went from like .5  to 2.5"+ for west Austin.

Mine went from a little less than an inch to 3.5 inches. No fucking chance

Just saw that. Holy shit balls. Got almost a 1/4” earlier this afternoon. 2+ inches on top of that would be wild. Obviously not gonna happen. Gotta be a whoopsie on their end

At least the lakes are getting something for a change. That’s a hell of a lot more important that our yards

[miguelito 11509]

Choo choo, motherfuckers.  This is training pretty good, lots of lightning.  1" in less than an hour.
