Anywhere that got into that big rain Monday night thru early Wednesday. My home is on the south side of Corpus Christi where we had around 13 inches of rain as did folks in Flour Bluff.

Im coming down to PINS on the 5th-7,8 hopefully they will subside somewhat by then....
Say Tyler (or anyone else) tell me, I know better than to come down on a holiday do you think it will have cleared out much on the early morning of the 5th down on pins past 10 miles?

The People, yea, for the most part.
The Skeletons and Mount Trashmores at every barrel.... Not so much. 
(For the uninitiated, the 'Skeletons' are the metal frame leftovers of the Pop-Up shelters that all break at the exact same point. They tend to litter the beach year-round, but Holiday Weekends are notorious for the piles of Skeletons out there). |

Cut off for some reason. These mosquitos are so crazy, I smacked one on my window and when I picked my hand up it just flew off unscathed. Idk how that mosquito survived that. |

Yep. Lots of flooded areas with standing water around the airport. THICK. Just walk outside and automatic 5-10 on you. And they're biggins too. Can't open a vehicle door without 3 or 4 getting in. Mind you, this is WITH a breeze.
My boss said it perfectly: "Change your cologne to Off!"

The sage thing might work if there's not much wind. But then again, if there's not much wind, it would REALLY have to work.

If there ain't much wind, expect a visit by Ranger Rick, thinking you are smoking some skunk weed on his beach!!! [Not that I would know what skunk weed smells like, mind you....].  |
