Odd but it is raining a gulley washer here in Liquor city and I am glad of it.

Lightning, then whamo- rain and wind.

There are 11 liquor stores now in Rowlett which is about a 7 mile radius. So the odds of a lightning strike hitting a liquor store are about 100:1 in favor of.

Hasnt rained at my house in Burleson since the end of March. If this keeps up then I am going to start a sand fracking business out of my back yard.

Zero at my house. Poured in town about 2 miles away. Every bit of rain the last couple of months has missed me.

A little bit, pleasant 77 though

Re: Out of Nowhere- RAIN - 07/13/18 01:27 AM

I hope you guys are in better shape rain-wise than we are. Tiny Inola's claim to fame is "Hay Capital of the World", and it is nearing desperation time here. First cuts are below average and I'm seeing hay for sale at ridiculous prices, up to $120 a round bale, and the last time this happened about 10 years ago the farmers were selling round bales of corn stalks for $50. No rain in sight.
