    Checking out the brush lots today, Amarillo broke a 1904 rain fall record Saturday.

    Careful about what kind of floaters you are speaking of. Could be anything from terds to bodies.:bug: Or wood;)

    Yes what a mess. I thought about you down there in Texas when the weather petiole mentioned all the rain.

    If you are out gathering firewood, you are OK. I assume:)

    High and dry, I saw a few home that had water along the foundation, I see a bunch of water(Playa lakes) that wasn't here a week ago. And now the roads have huge pot holes. Oh the madness! Load two for today.

    Keep the raincoat handy in case more comes. Good that you are getting wood now. Probably not much competition for it.

    How much rain did you get?

    That is a lot of water, especially for that area. I think in the last 7 days we have not even got .1" but really need more. A short shower went through today so we might be at .1" but not more. Hopefully, more will come tomorrow as predicted.
