  1. About tree fiddy.
  2. Hell yeah! The Road to 670 starts NOW!
  3. Holy cow, I've been out of pocket today and just heard the news. I'm both surprised, and unsurprised by it. I guess I just didn't think it would happen quite yet, even if the writing seems to have been on the wall for a while. It would be pretty crazy for RBR to ditch Horner, then still lose Max, after already losing Newey. That's a lot of big blows in succession.
  4. He sounds exactly like half the Longhorn posters on the recruiting board.
  5. They do sound good, although the old V8s sounded better, and the V10s were unbelievable.
  6. From yesterday.
  7. But Lake Travis does! Up to 658.6, so now it's 21' up and still rising, if much slower. LCRA reports that flood operations at Wirtz and Starcke have concluded for the time being.
  8. Buchanan just hit 1011.53 so it's officially over 9' up, and Travis hit 657.6 so it's now an official 20' up, since 8 AM on 7/4.
  9. Sugar begins to caramelize at 311 and burns at 350. That's another reason folks like to smoke at 225, very little risk of burning any sugar in the rub or in a glaze.
  10. Completely agree, would have loved to see them release it at the chronologically appropriate time in the MCU, which I believe was in between Civil War and Infinity War.
  11. I think you're right, and I also don't think it helped that Natasha was already dead after Endgame. I enjoyed the movie but my kids who'd loved the entire MCU up to that point, had no desire to see Black Widow because "she's already dead, dad. What's the point?"
  12. Yeah I suspect that will be enough to get them to open up floodgate operations at Wirtz.
  13. Streamflows in the 2K-5K range tend to move the lake by inches. It takes streamflows in the 20K+ range like we saw on Saturday, to move it by multiple feet, especially the closer we get to 680. It has substantially tapered off since its peak 2 days ago despite some heavy rains yesterday. But, there's still quite a bit of rain out there. It would be great to see LT hit 660 or even greater, as a result of all of this. It's gone up 1/10th just in the time we've been discussing it this morning.
  14. Sure hope so, I wouldn't complain.
  15. Heavy rain firing back up in the highland lakes basin, north and west of Austin. Lake Travis now up 19.3 feet since 8 AM Friday to a level of 656.9, and Lake Buchanan up 8.6 feet to a level of 1,011.17. I'd predicted around a 20' rise for Travis but I was really hoping it'd get all the way to 660. It could still go up a few inches or a foot over the next few days, but I don't think it'll quite hit 660 now.
  16. Gauges at Hamilton Creek and Big Sandy are still borked, but Cow Creek is operating. This one was down to 1 cfs just a couple hours ago, now rising again, currently at 1.27K cfs. Yesterday it peaked at 57K and at some point during that event, is when the bridge at 1431 and Cow Creek washed out..
  17. Heavy rain falling again in the areas north of Lake Travis that flooded yesterday. Rainfall totals are past 3 hours.
  18. Eh, go fuck yourself.
  19. You should probably just take a break for a while. Seriously, you're better than this. Usually.
  20. What are you talking about? There's a specific DT thread for news about the event. It's right here: As for the rest of your bullshit statement, you have no idea what I think or feel.
  21. I'm confused by this post from you. You have been suggesting all day to split the discussion of the tragedy/ongoing rescue efforts/fallout/aftermath onto a different thread, because this is the rain thread. And that is the appropriate action and there's now a DT thread for the news about the sad and tragic event itself. There's plenty of news discussion that can be had that isn't (necessarily) CR material, but it's still off topic for THIS thread. Which is exactly what I've been saying for the past 2 days, and what you've been saying today.
  22. Word. Except in the face of overwhelming catastrophic force like the past few days, my bet is always on the Austin FF. It is a power unto itself.
  23. What is this, a slice for ANTS?? (looks good)
