June 2, 20223 yr Decent (but not that decent) chance of rain this afternoon and then possibly tomorrow morning. After that:
June 2, 20223 yr Up near Mullin where I got my hole a neighbor's gauge had 5.5 inches. The creek did rise. Go a mile north or south and it was 1 to 3 inches.
June 2, 20223 yr Went for a run about 6 this AM. My wife said you better look at the radar. It looked like it was staying north of us. Twenty minutes later I'm calling her from the safety of Laredo Taco Company to come get me. Out of breath and drenched. Big heavy rain drops.

Not because of the rain, but because you are never going to hear the end of it from your wife.

Loaded all the shit into the bed of the truck for Port A, then boom. Hopefully the 3 hour traipse through the sun and 97 south of Seguin drys our clothes out.

Why didn't you just get some tacos while you were there and wait it out?

Especially as a dad of two youngins you're just trying to make travelling a little bit easier. I don't miss that aspect. Have fun.

June 3, 20223 yr Race against time/evaporation. Big nice line of solid rain heading this way - but weakening ever so slightly. Made it so far from the Panhandle. Will it hold together? Man, I don't know, it's trying though. I hope so, because this is it before the Deep Heat Blast coming up for the next week. Edited June 3, 20223 yr by phdhorn
June 3, 20223 yr Man, it's trying, but I don't think it's gonna make it - or at least very little of it.
June 4, 20223 yr Love the rain and don’t really mind a thunderstorm even if it spooks my kids…but at 6a on a Saturday, it rustles my jimmies.

June 4, 20223 yr Sitting in the HEB parking lot at Lakeline & 183 waiting for curbside. I'm not gonna risk some kid getting zapped by lightning just to get our groceries. Hoping this will move through quickly.
June 4, 20223 yr The wife often comes home with more plants. I have to take care of them because she is a plant murderer.
June 4, 20223 yr Wow, rare forcefield in usually-tropical-drenched Bee Cave... most of this went north/south of us. Only getting wafer-thin mint of rain on streets/grass:
June 4, 20223 yr Fucking cock tease in Driftwood. Radar showed a big blob of rain supposedly over my house.

I mean it was like at 7am, but you can't be drunk all day if you don't start drinking early.
June 10, 20223 yr Keeping perspective for the state as a whole, things did improve the last 4 weeks. May 10: June 7: https://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/Maps/CompareTwoWeeks.aspx
June 10, 20223 yr rooting for a pacific hurricane to develop and kick some moisture our way. Don't want a big one to hit us head on, but damn I would love some rain.
June 11, 20223 yr I don't think it's ever going to rain again.If it rained today the raindrops would probably be warm
June 12, 20223 yr 22 hours ago, Hate said: This is depressing. Austin Forcefield has been eating its Wheaties.
June 15, 20223 yr The longest term forecast I've seen has a slight chance of rain on the last day of June. That's it. We're fucked.
