Hurricane Alex

[ROCKSPRINGS]

I sure don't wish any body bad luck but I sure need the rain. Looks like a bad one for South Texas.

yes it is going to be an long uncertain season with all that oil in the gulf. hurricanes are unpredictable and outsmart the weathermen.

According to the models at the attached link, it looks like Alex is headed for Mexico.

Wouldn't wish a hurricane on anyone but a good ol' tropical depression could sure change the drought situation.

Click this kink and scroll down the page to see where Alex is heading. This track has changed substantially in the last 2 days.

I have a 6 year old granddaughter and three dogs, plus four cows that can do that, don't bank on weather Folks.

I got some this spring, but usually around this time of the year the only rain we get is from a hurricane.

We sure need some of that rain. It dried up in a hurry.

 

[backhoeboogie]

Maybe it will get that high pressure off of us if nothing else.

 

[1982vett]

Nah... It will just squeeze us between to systems of rain like it always does...

Doing it now.

Had a shower go over one place today and drop 3 1/2". Another place not a couple miles as the crow flies got nothing. The one that got the rain needed it the most... sure put my new road work to the test. :banana:

 

[1982vett]

Got nothing...........probably going to get nothing....

Best thing for new roads and that much rain is to stay off them till they are nearly dry then roll em good.

 

[backhoeboogie]

There was a wall cloud yesterday coming right at me. I must be intimidating because it stopped dead in its tracks.

Rain north, south, east and west of where I needed it - AGAIN!

All we've gotten is scattered showers.

 

[Brute 23]

Radio said this morning south Texas could get up to 1' of rain with up to 22" in some places. :shock:

 

[1982vett]

Still got nothing............

 

[backhoeboogie]

Finally got a little bit of rain. I haven't given up yet on getting a good soaking.

 

[ROCKSPRINGS]

Nothing yet but its getting close.
