December 28 of 2015, I had water going out the overflow pipe. That was last time. Had rain in August of 2016, that got me back up to within 12.25" of overflow.
Tracy, I feel your pain. I've watched radar countless times as big fronts have zeroed in on our little place. Then magically right before we get rain, it splits north and south. There's a 17,000 AC lake just west of me, about a mile. I was convinced that the lake must be able to effect the weather.
We are getting hit now. I may be to the overflow pipe. Not sure, as I can't get there.
I did look at the news about the storms and tornados that hit TX. Prayers definitely going out to those folks. My problems seem trivial. I've heard the saying, "no whining on the yacht." I certainly don't have a yacht, but I'm blessed..

9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
