Less than .1" here. Has not even settled the dust. You all are very lucky getting the rain. Medina river has nearly stopped flowing and the lake is over 82' down.

That is really bad there. We will need some serious flooding conditions in some areas to get the lakes any where close to good again. It's a scarey thing.

Well, when it was all said and done, Coryell county ended up between 5.5 and 7.5 inches total. What's interesting is that there was very little runoff. The creeks and the Leon river are moving some, but they haven't really come up much. Looks like almost all of it either soaked into the ground or got caught in the stock tanks before making it to the water sheds.
Still a slight chance for some more, but it looks like the biggest part has moved to the west.

Still a slight chance for some more, but it looks like the biggest part has moved to the west. No run off at my ranch either in Coryell but glad we got the 6.5" of rain. I think if we can get some or a few downpours now the creeks will run with the runoff once all this soaks in the ground. One thing for sure,,,,mud is everywhere now!!!
Shhhhhhhh better to be quiet than remove all doubt..

Anyone know how much rain Fisher County got. Been trying to get ahold of my FIL or BIL to find out. I know it's too much for me to get back to either of my feeders because it's at least 1/4" in.!  That's some nasty mud out there where we're at.

I'm down here in Corpus working with the city on water plant projects. It has been coming down here like the proverbial horse and the flat rock. Let it rain! The folks in Corpus were about have to resort to going Bear Grils and start drinking their own urine.
