I am off Yorktown between Waldron and Laguna Shores and I've emptied my 6 inch rain gauge twice and I believe there was some overflow. I cannot believe how much rain I've gotten at my house. How about some of you Bluffians and other foreigners?

Looks like you might get another 14". Head for high ground.

Something hit my nice rain gauge during the night , cracked the glass, we had about 4 inches through the evening - then it really started raining - got water in the back part of the house again. Will be looking for a contractor when this is over. The room i live in, in the back part of the house, was a garage, then was closed in , was an exercise room/storage room. Because of being a garage - the sealing around the floor was half - arsed , i guess. Long night of running shop vac/pumps and I see a pretty large rain band is coming in shortly.

Someone run out and make sure pins hasnt washed away.

You guys are lucky ! I was down there all last week and saw how dry it was like it has been in the Hill Country.

My rain gauge this morning had a lonely spider it in drinking up the only drop.

We are losing fawns up here and the deer have their ribs showing. All of the rain has been going East and staying South of San Antonio.

PLEASE SEND SOME UP HERE.

Caught most of our trout last week around marker 74 south of pure oil on the edge of the ditch with perfect size crooker.
The cabin near Twin Palms had hundreds of dinks under the light, no good ones.

11.5 total as of 9am here on the Southside. The usual flood in the sun room which was supposed to be a covered patio that was closed in an lower grade than the house.

Same as the room I live in. Got to get a contractor over here to figure out how to seal that better, two tries so far, third will be the charm.

Almost a foot in the Bluff, but that's the least of my problems. All the water flushed out the old gopher holes, and a number of them were below my above-ground pool!!!! Now, I have depressions in the bottom liner from the washout. Hoping it holds and I don't come home to a ripped liner and a drained pool...... 8,500 gallons down a gopher hole!!! Crying or Very sad

I'm seeing pictures of a flooded PA. Does anyone live near Royal Sands off 361? I'm trying to figure out if our house flooded. I expect not since we did not flood during the blow but by the looks of downtown PA I'm not so sure. It's hard to determine how high the water is from the pics sent to my phone but it looks like at least one of the souvenir shops is flooded (the shark one). Doesn't look like IGA is flooded but avenue G looks like it was hit hard. The pictures just don't have any reference to how deep it is. I will try to upload them if I can figure it out.

We are just off Laguna Shores near Yorktown and our 5" gauge filled up twice, but may have overflowed last night.
