We're at 13" and still raining heavily (Round Rock)
A few spots just north of Austin got more than 15 inches.

Thats some pretty good rain. Sounds fairly indicate of the rain the NB/Canyon Lake area got in October 1998. 15+ inches in less than 24 hours will definitely cause some serious flooding but I'm not familiar with how flood prone areas north of Austin are.
Going to be sad when the rain leaves. Can never get too much. I love the rain.
Just hope people quit complaining about it because everytime I hear people whine about too much rain, it won't rain for a significant amount of time at which people will start their circle jerk of complaining because we haven't had any rain.
Stupid South Texans.
It's like I ask people;"Given the choice between drought and flood, no middle, what would you choose"?. You ALWAYS CHOOSE RAIN. ALWAYS.
Or when you see the weathercast on T.V during a drought and it's raining and the idiot weather guy says, "Don't worry folks, hopefully this will all be gone by tomorrow"
Stupid region of the U.S.
our rain gauge said a half a foot of rain at my house
My gauge has 7.25 inches on it here in Cibolo. It's off I think. My neighbor's got about 10 on his.
Don't stop rain.
Yay, roads to work closed due to flooding! And major traffic lights out to make it even more interesting!
Had to find a way, though. Fun morning, no doubt.
It looks like we've gotten a little under 8" here at my house. Power was out a couple of times here yesterday, but not for more than an hour per time. That wind was crazy! It was trash day here yesterday and I had to retrieve my container from a pileup of at least a dozen at the end of the block. Luckily, some neighbor's nice Audi served as a stop to keep them from being hurled further.
Bingo, exactly where I live.A few spots just north of Austin got more than 15 inches.
Sad thing is most of the rain is too far east to get in the Highland Lakes. Travis will get some and go up a few feet (especially if the rain currently to our SW stays to the west) but Buchanan's basically where it was a few days ago.
Honestly, I wish they would learn how to spell my name correctly.
Yeah I looked up a drainage map and that really sucks. Its all going to end up back in the Gulf instead of in a reservoir.
Too much rain in too short of time, and at the end of the growing season.
Sounds like Repugs conducting a war.
Easy to say when its not your house floating down the river.
Wow Tropical Storm Igor just formed.. and it looks to be coming this way..
Igor is weeks away from affecting anything that doesn't have gills. Time will tell where it goes. (but only something like 5% of storms that form that far out ever make it to the Gulf coast - especially this time of year.)
Is it pronounced Her mine
....................or Her miney??????
7.5" +++++++++++
Blew over a tree in my yard.
Easy to say when its not your house floating down the river.Your right.
But I kind of find it hard to feel sympathy for people who INSIST on rebuidling their homes off a river they know crests from time to time.
Sure, flooding rain sucks but your St. Augustine grass (which was designed to grow in Florida, which actually does rain like this often) will like the rain. Thus less watering, aquifer water level restoration and fewer watering restrictions.
Oh, it's raining again. Life is good.
Tornado trying to form in Dallas County right now.
loads of tornados here in Dallas Metroplex atm
One touched down in Seagoville and there is one right by Love Field right now.
It is pouring here in Dallas, and Tornadoes are errrrrwhere
2012
