Our creek hasn't flowed in 2 years. But we got 5" in the last 24 hours. Needless to say its running now. Sure wish we could have spread this rain out from spring to summer so the grasses could've done better

Send it east, please.
We got a little last night and showers today.... maybe .5-.75" total.
Its still raining. Won't complain about that. We rode around the pastures looking at the ponds. They have filled slightly, but most of the rain has been absorbed. At least we don't have to buy more water tanks for now.
3.8" early this morning at the house.

The rain guages over flowed in Brownwood. 
I heard that some parts of Brownwood received 8 inches. That is great for the ponds. Our ponds were to the critical level. Still not much runoff. I know we have had at least 3 inches.
Cal,
How much have you gotten? A guy at the Dollar General said he had a little over 4 inches in Sunset.

I haven't been out to the farm today, but we got somewhere around 1.5". The big tank was plenty low, so I've been digging it out with my loader bucket. It's pretty slow, but I've made some progress in the 15 or so hours I've been working on it.

My sister who lives over near Llano called this afternoon... She was pretty happy as they had gotten 4 inches of rain....

Rain gauge only goes to 6 inches. It is over full. 3 completely dry stock tanks are now spilling over. Another one if half full. Still more that I have not seen yet because I don't want to rut up the pasture.
Water is standing even in the sandy loam parts of the hay field behind terraces.
I was hauling water to the cows. That can stop now

The radar does not look good for east Tx.
