So is all this flooding good for Texas because it recharges the aquifers or is all the flooding bad

Much of the rain didn't fall where it would recharge the 'aquifers' ... too far S or E. Some will go in. Would have been better if the storm had tracked 50 miles west of where it was.

I think for San Antonio, it was pretty much spot on. The thing went straight up the middle of san antonio crashed right into the recharge zone, stayed there for a while, then moved slightly to the west and threw off all the rain from its north eastern corner toward austin (therefore covering pretty much everything north of SA). I would be surprised if there wasn't a large jump in our aquifer level (though I haven't checked).

edit, just checked: It's gone up over 6 feet since Tuesday.

Ah, but if it had gone up 60 miles west, with more rain between Uvalde and SA, it could have gone up even more. All that rain that fell in Austin and points north is going straight to the coast.
