October 25, 20223 yr I'm slightly ashamed to admit I laughed when they announced a tornado warning for Jarrell. Jeez, what is it about that town?
October 25, 20223 yr 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.

October 25, 20223 yr 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.

October 25, 20223 yr We actually got some this round. Sounded like a lot at least. Rain Guage will probably show .25 tomorrow morning.
October 25, 20223 yr Hopefully no animals in those trailers Told you all the fire station window danger was real
October 25, 20223 yr Also came across this looking at I-35 stuff and it made me ragey but also sounds like something Evil Mopac would send out
October 25, 20223 yr Love that aggy admins let those students camp out for tickets knowing shit was going to be real

October 25, 20223 yr Weather app shows 80% chance of rain this Friday. Can’t take it seriously until Surly-fication.

October 26, 20223 yr I've got outdoor Halloween parties on Friday and Saturday nights. @phdhorn Should I say fuck it and drink indoors while binging horror flicks or go out for the Halloween who-ers dripping masqura on thier heaving bosom?

October 27, 20223 yr I can't believe I'm actually going to miss the weather on a backpacking weekend for once! Yeah rain!

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.
October 28, 20223 yr 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.

October 28, 20223 yr Pouring and thunderstorming in NW Travis for the past 20 minutes. I am gruntled.
October 28, 20223 yr 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.
