We got two inches in this part of West Texas early this morning. The ground is so saturated that water is now standing in my yard, I haven't seen this since the Columbus Day flood twenty years ago. And...........the weatherman said we can expect a repeat of this morning's performance again tonight.
It is have a positive effect in some areas, the lakes are filling up, that should remove water restrictions and give us enough water to wash our butts, but it is killing the farmers. All the field look like lakes, most of the wheat fields are under water, cotton fields have washed out and removed the plants, and by the time it dries out enough to get back in the fields it may be too late to make a crop.
That's what I like about Texas, nothing is constant, it is always from one extreme to another.
