October 16, 20187 yr this is part of a video that i got.. cant figure out how to post a video from text.
October 16, 20187 yr @llanoflash Text it to your email, then save the file. Then upload it to youtube.
October 16, 20187 yr I've only seen something even close to that once or twice in the last 40 years. Maybe never that high - can't recall it ever going over the bridge. That's incredible!
October 16, 20187 yr Did I hear it right that this is even higher than the 1997 flood? Holy crap if so.
October 16, 20187 yr 5 minutes ago, Orange&White said: TxDot is expecting imminent breach at the Llano bridge. What does that mean? That the bridge will fail, or just that the water will go over the bridge?
October 16, 20187 yr LCRA hydromet says 275k cfs flow in Llano at the bridge - Yesterday it was roaring but at only about 20k cfs. That's incredible. LCRA rain gauges to the west of Llano proper on the river all showing +10" of rain in the last 48 hours. It was still flowing strong from the Junction flood runoff before this......throwing gas on the fire. Pedernales at 20k cfs - crazy. LCRA rain and streamflow data

I don't recall '97 being this high...I thought it was touching the base then. We've always told of floods touching the bridge but never going over the highway. That's another 10+ feet to breach.

October 16, 20187 yr Spencer just said that some of the computers are showing 11 more inches from now till Sunday in the Hill Country/Llano area.
October 16, 20187 yr 11' difference in water level on the north end of LBJ compared to the south end.

October 16, 20187 yr So wait on KXAN, they are saying Marble Falls is 12 foot high and topping the dam, and that’s before the huge flood wave hits Marble Falls? And Travis is gonna flood hard.
October 16, 20187 yr 1) What happens if Travis goes over pool level with all this rain? How high is the dam? 2) This water looks pretty dirty. Is Travis still going to be nice and purdy? I'm only half kidding.
October 16, 20187 yr Thankfully Lake Travis was down in the 650s. If it was at capacity it might have been 1991 all over again. Edited October 16, 20187 yr by UTEX_ME

That was mismanaged poorly however since most of the LCRA was on holiday break.
