  1. So was NWS fully robust on Jan 21 2021 and it fell apart by Jan 21 2025? Is that what I'm hearing?
  2. Kristi is blaming the National Weather Service.
  3. Still 27 (allegedly)
  4. They may actually not address the real situation. I think they're about to shut this down.
  5. Earlier I mentioned I thought this was going to be brutal, and I think it's about to be.
  6. Judge is basically saying we're moved from rescue to recovery.
  7. Chip Roy wants us to pray. Drink!
  8. Chip Roy invoking Robert Earl Keen. That has a lot to do with shit.
  9. Cornyn leading off with the Trump blowjob. Well done, John, you simp.
  10. They're going to send in more fixed-wing aircraft along with helicopters to help find victims. Might have done that yesterday you feckless hacks.
  11. Jesus Christ stop talking about Trump you fucking sycophants. This is an utterly worthless, information-free presser so far.
  12. He seriously is. Gotta kiss that ass.
  13. Abbott is starting out with the tiresome trope about how locals are somehow more driven to help each other than people anywhere else on the planet. Parts of New Mexico are fairly immune to natural disaster. Well, except aliens.
  14. Just announced on CBS Austin.
  15. Bettie Cross thinks people just need to get insurance adjusters out there. Uh, a whole lot of rural folks self insure. Beyond that, I would be surprised if typical homeowners insurance would cover an event like this. @C-Man can weigh in there. Federal flood insurance is insanely expensive now. I don't think insurance is gonna make much of a dent.
  16. Oh good. Kristi Noem is about to speak. She surely has new, detailed information to offer. Just put the locals on and stop with this performative grandstanding by state and federal officials.
  17. . . . and her daughter's (nick?)name is "Tiny". Fuck me running.
  18. I think the 2 PM press conference is going to be brutal. I sure hope I'm wrong.
  19. Yup. Seems to have slowed a bit:
  20. For folks in Austin's NW Hills, multiple low water crossings on old Spicewood Springs road are predictably closed.
  21. Can you elaborate as to who these people are? We have neighbors by that name down the street with kids ~ that age.
  22. Yup, our kids all went to McCallum and I used to see Kelly and (for a while) Bruce at track meets, etc. I probably spent too much time staring at Kelly and not enough time watching my kid run. Priorities, it's not like he was bound for the Olympiics.
  23. Obviously she knows who he was, she picked the song. I was being facetious. Her main listens are Clapton, Petty, Kelly Willis and younger artists like Kasey Chambers. She's just not that much of a blues person. (Or so I thought.)
  24. OK, now I know this is an historic event. My wife just started cranking SRV "Texas Flood". I wasn't sure she even knew who he was.
