I'm slightly ashamed to admit I laughed when they announced a tornado warning for Jarrell.  Jeez, what is it about that town?

We had an intense but quick line of storms come through here in NW Travis.  About 15 minutes of the strongest stuff which was heavy rain and strong winds.  .5" of rain and probably still a little more but for the most part it's past and on its way to Austin and Round Rock.

Looks like I'll watch it pass just north of me in NB, per usual. 

Radar has it coming straight for you, but it also might split around you.

Wowzers. I was in the garage packing for a hunting trip and closed the doors because it got super windy. Walked out back a little while later, and it was absolutely pouring. Over an inch, but I didn’t even hear it over my air pods since there wasn’t much thunder.

Also, WE NEED TO BE AWARE OF FIRE STATION WINDOWS THAT WERE BLOWN OUT NEAR JARRELL.  I’M NOWHERE NEAR JARRELL BUT CHANNEL 36 TV GUY SAID WE GOT TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT THEM. NOT SURE HOW FAR GLASS TRAVELS, BUT BE CAREFUL OUT THERE.

That's the other per usual. I just went out and staked down the Trampoline so now we'll get nothing for sure.

Just drove from Salt Traders RR back to NW Hills, 34 to 45 to MoPac. That was….hairy.
50+ mph winds easy. Shit visibility in blowing rain. High water in at least 5 spots.
And the lightning was freakish. Turned the sky green a coupla times for 5-10 seconds at a time.

We actually got some this round.  Sounded like a lot at least. Rain Guage will probably show .25 tomorrow morning.

When God and nature keeps sending a message, you should listen.  Just like New Orleans.

This is the message God keeps sending me about New Orleans.

Same here. Considering the model runs they were showing yesterday, that's great. And with the wind and low humidity, all the flat surfaces are pretty much dry already.

They were going to make a list of everyone in line and send them home but for some reason that didn't work out

Due to the constraints of having children in a split custody situation, I bought in Jarrell last year. I've had 2 close calls in less than a year, and hoping that we don't have another tomorrow.

About 0.35 inches from the last go around, then another 0.35 inches last night in south Brazos County, and more on the way.  I'll take every drop we can get.  I've lost about a half dozen mature oaks, and I don't want to lose any more.

Yeah. this is much heavier than I thought (that's what she said).  Good news is that weird greenish-pink thing in the sky went away which made me worry about tornadoes.  Looks like it's gonna be this heavy until lunchtime.  Which is cool.  Making a note to remind my lazy ass to go out this weekend at dusk and spray garlic for mosquitoes so kids don't get eaten alive on Halloween.  But all in all, should be a nice weekend and grass can finally get to go dormant.  If this rain hadn't occurred right now, I think we were on pace for the driest October in Austin history.  A record we seem to set every fucking goddamn year.
