we finally saw rain yesterday at my house for the first time in 2 months. It rained earlier in the week a few miles away, and across the Metroplex (over in Foat Wuth) I heard it rained awhile back.
I think we're still down about a foot or so for the year. Not nearly as bad as Art, but hey, everybody knows Terlingua is in what passes for a Taumalipan/Sonoran desert.
We're mowing the lakes around here.
Of course, standard equipment on a bass boat in east Texas is a chainsaw and a an ATV. No well-equipped one gets off the trailer without at least one of each. The chainsaw is to cut away the fallen trees and the ATV is to pull it through the rocky parts of the lake where the grass isn't slick enough for the boat to glide over.
Dallas has had several weeks of level orange ozone days, with humidity in the 80% range and temperatures in the mid 90's. I'm kinda used to it, though. I never trusted air I couldn't drink.
Then there's Houston, where plastic rusts.
Dallas is only miserable. Houston is oppressive. Wouldn't live anywhere else for the world.
Regards,
Rabbit.
