If you have ever dealt with Aqua, you would know they dont give a shit.

Aqua is the worst company I've ever dealt with.  They are 100X worse than Directv/AT&T.  

We were without water for a full week one time because a Pedernales Coop crew accidentally cut a power line that powered the water tower and Aqua didn't have a backup generator.

You mean Aqua Texas, and not Aqua Water Supply Corporation (operates near Bastrop), correct?  Or am I missing something...?

I wonder how this drought in CenTex compares to historical averages?  Is it the worst ever b/c it damn sure feels like the worst ever!!!

I wish I could send some rain up your way.  I got a good 1 1/2 inches of liquid gold so far and the storm isn't even inland.

It sucks, but I recall 2011 being much worse in terms of drought.  Either way, my fucking back door is having trouble closing because my foundation shifts when it gets too dry.  Happened last year too.  I am forced to water my god damn foundation, which is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

2011 had the whole state in exceptional drought. Just CenTex is in exceptional drought, this time. So, congrats to the rest of the State. 

Avery Tomasco posted on twitter that Death Valley has 2.2" of rain in one day due to Hilary, which is more than Austin has seen all summer (1.2").

If there's no rain by the end of the month, it will be the driest summer in 113 years. In 1910, there was 0.98" of rain.

Even 2011 was wetter at Mabry.

It's happening in NB. Probably all we'll get until Halloween. 

Congrats to all those getting rain. I'm real happy for you.

I’m pretty sure the drought from the ‘50s still hasn’t been matched. Covered ~8 years. 3 of our top 10 driest years occurred in that drought.

land that’s been in the family since the 1800s has a natural flowing spring and to my knowledge, that drought was the only time it completely stopped flowing 

Hays City. Poured for less than ten minutes. 
 

That wind, though. Last two rain events have brought the motherfucking wind.

It's drunk in San Antonio and I am raining!

Decent soaking up in Spring Branch.

Some light drizzle downtown. Well, there are some drops on my office window. It could be piss, as well.

Looks like some outlying areas north and south of Houston got some sprinkles, but I saw nary a drop inside the Loop today.

I can see clouds down south from the top of a hill in 78730.

You lucky fuckers.

Rain up in the 78702.
