Welcome to the cyberhoodHey everybody! New here on this thread. And still kinda new to BYC. I'm in NE Texas near Longview.
We have been forecast with a 40% chance of rain for the last week now and into the next 7 day forecast. Been a daily 1/2-1.5 inch or so far 5/7 days last week thankfully the drought has broken and no major flooding. The weedeater isn't going to cut it with the 50% of the yard I mowed last week. I now need a scythe.I'm gonna do something here that I have done in at least a couple years. Cross post from across platforms...... The following is my "time stamp a couple minutes ago CDT":
Texas. Is like southern Michigan when it comes to weather. Wait 15 minutes -- it'll change.
0% forecast of precipitation for today and the last 2-5 days. So we got lulled into a distraction of 95-100° for high & ~70° for lows.
I watched this line develop to the NW of us from ~4-5PM and at 6-ish I saw (for me) the initial lightning. Went to the cool radar app and saw the curtain of cells blossoming up near Wichita Falls & start to head this way.
7-ish the frontal boundary rolled over head and the wind changed which dropped the temp about 10°F in about 3 minutes. What a refreshing feeling.
Our weather vane detected rain started at 7:28 (giggles) & by 7:45 we already had 0.67"
By 8:00 it created 1"
It's now 8:28 and it's still solidly coming down at 1.61" .... Radar looks like we'll see no letting up for at least another hour.
Glad dogs were fed and chickens fed & watered just before the storm wall hit.....
Y'all stay safe & as sane as possible. Please also keep your distances, wearing masks(or like me, bandanas) & them hands washed.

I'm ashamed to admit this but I have had my chickens since Nov and today was the first time I tried to have them eat scratch from my hand....I was nervous.
I still have all my fingers![]()
