When you had 30 inches in four days, was that when Lufkin and all those cities flooded so bad? I just couldn't imagine what that must have been like.
Now that I'm almost full, I'm dying to go see our buddy Bob and start stocking. Two more months and the weather should change!!!!
Thanks,

Eddie,
During that particular rain event I was in Houston and Houston actually got more...about 36 inches. Polk County was declared a disaster area because a lot of the roads washed out, but other than that, it didn't cause much damage. No damage at the ranch at all.
But if you really want to talk rain...at our former house in Clear Lake one memorable rain event dropped 48 inches in 24 hours at the Alvin weather station just down the road from us. Needless to say, that caused extensive damage. That's a lot of rain....even for Texas!
