Raining north of you, but probably not enough to get the blue green algae warning off Lake Texoma. We need more, more, more and a good hard freeze! But what we got is wonderful.

We have had rain off and on for the last few days - I like it at the moment because hunting season has opened (Oregon) and we have hills behind us that were very dry - always afraid of a small smoldering cigarette, etc.

Raining in Sacramento area also. Two days of it last week, incredibly beautiful weekend, raining all day here, more projected tomorrow. Sigh, what's up with rain in October? Glad to hear that Texas is getting some relief. Was in Bastrop area for a few weeks helping out with animals displaced by the evacutations and fires.

Rain anywhere in Texas is a blessing! Maybe just maybe some will come to El Paso.

Hope it is also raining in Houston ~ does anyone know ?
Wish I could send some of our rain here in NE PA to those that need it ! We have had more than our share w/flooding in many areas.

Yes, Houston got rain! Pearland to the southeast got about 5 inches, College Station got a little over an inch, and other areas around Houston got anywhere from 1+ to 4 inches. Hallelujah!

We are still about 24 inches behind in rainfall but we rejoiced Sunday for what we got!

It isn't raining in my town but I went to a neighboring town to the doctor today. I had to go thru a little town 10 miles from my home and it started raining just before I entered the town and ended just as I left the town. The main street is maybe 1/4 mile long. We did get .25" twice last week. I live in west texas.

How's this for rain? This is 2005 and it was the same when Irene and Lee came through last month. Glad you have rain. The East coast would have sent you some earlier if there was any way to do it! Now you can dance in the rain!

Well, we are very thankful for what we got but we are still in a very severe drought and any that anyone wants to send will be greatly appreciated.
