Buchanan watershed getting it right now. if it holds together Llano river and LBJ watershed are next, could make it's way into Travis after that. long line, horizontal across the highland lakes region.  should all be runoff at this point.  wow.

I was originally 20-25 rise. but new rain doesn't make our predictions more accurate because today's rain wasn't part of the equation, still 559 and predicting 661 means you need to work for LCRA!

You doin’ the drywall work up there at the new McDonalds?

Goddammit. Double rep somehow. Well done. I am laughing my ass off.

 

This storm is really going to just rain straight down the Pedernales. Bring it on.

Irving to Cypress to pick up my boy.

Normally straight 45, unless I take the Waco through Groesbeck route to 6.

Lake Travis Info
659.90 feet on a conservation pool of 681.  The rainfall in the past week has raised the water level more than half way from its deficit last week towards full capacity.
My interest in the lake info is twofold 1) it is an incredibly interesting reservoir WRT water levels and extreme lows recently and 2) have cousins who live on the lake at Lago.

Travis went over 660' at 5:50am this morning according to the LCRA River Operations Report page. Gates are still open at Wirtz and Starke so should continue to rise.

*Edit to ask: Anyone know what level sometimes islands are covered? Been so long I don't remember.

For some reason, 668' is in my head. But there is also a lot of bourbon and vodka in my head.

The deep state LCRA caught wind on my 661 prediction from last week and are doing everything they can to prevent me being right.

Or they are generating electricity.

I always round up or down to the nearest whole number.

Most of Kerr County in D2 is also a head scratcher 

Super heavy rain in a short amount of time. It doesn't soak in, it runs into the river and creates a flash flood.

Just had a nice thunder boomer roll through here with a brief downpour and, now, the lingering pitterpatter of light stuff. Windows are open, and it’s 73 degrees at 12:45 pm in the middle of July.
