I was hoping somebody knew if the rivers were up with all this rain we have been getting.

you can check on usgs web site,,,has all rivers and lakes ..updated several times a day,,,check concho river at san angelo and paint rock,,colorado river at ballinger and leday,,,and elm creek at ballinger..those are main feeds to ivie....go to usgs and follow links to water bodies in texas,,group by river basins,,then to colo. river basin,

thank you, sir

Here's a rainfall totals map of the area. It looks like Ivie (east of San Angelo) missed the worst of the rainfall so far, but I'm guessing the heavy rains up around Big Springs will end up in Ivie in the next few days. Maybe someone more familiar with the watershed out there can chime in.

Water won't hit there until Saturday from up this way.

Wouldn't it hit spence first,,if it is coming from Big Spring?

Every, creek, draw, ditch, is running full in and around
the city limits. Beals creek off Midway Road, and Beals Creel-
on North Birdwell below the sale barn is flowing, and on the
rise.
Rain just began about 20 minutes ago. AGAIN!
It will go into the Colorado; then on into Spence.
Spence is so low, CRMWD. will kept it there.

JBT, is just now beginning to catch some flow off the Colorado,
and Bull Creek.

Thanks Bittercreek

IDK about the "worst of it" but ivie got a BUNCH dumped on it yesterday... I know I intercepted quite a bit of it with my body lol

straight from the USGS water level site

In other words, it's come up about 4" or 5" since the 15th. Thanks for the link. It will be interesting to watch for the next few days to see if it gets more of a rise from the upstream rains.
