I just had to post these pics i just took while braving the monsoon thats occuring here.


this is the drainage ditch behind my house thats like 15 feet deep (I'll try to find pixs of it empty

 

Oww!

 

The man made lake where I am at is filling rapidy thankfully I am on the 2nd floor

 

and it is still raining...

Live DFW Weather Radar

 

of my 21 years here this is only the third time that ditch back there has filled like this,
and this isn't the worst, it has broken past those gates and up to the shed before.

 

HEAD FOR THE HILLS!!! Oh I forgot there ain't no hills around.

Are you posted by the window keeping an eye on the water level just in case???? Stay dry dude.

 

no im not by the window, I actually put on a raincoat and went outside for those.
Truthfully I'm on the other side of the house and this view don't look to hopefull either.

 

We should make lupe a weatherman

 

my radar thingy is updating itself!

 

Rain like that sux...keep dry and stay indoors. It's just cloudy down in here in Houston

 

On the drive back from Dallas today it looked like we were bringing the rain with us -- it poured the whole way home... guess it stayed around though. (We need rain here so I can't b!tch)

 

Some day you Tulsa guys will come down, and we wont have rain, sleet, hail or snow.....or other bad weather.
sorry for 2 in a row.
Cheer up it's the first day of spring! (I think)

Channel 4 is currently at the I20 and carrier intersection, which is not 5 minutes from me and the roads and houses down there (robinson & I20 has some houses right there) are flooded!
that road right there in these pictures, thats robinson, and the next parallel street over is carrier...

 

Hope you have your floaties out Lupe!! I've been watching the pics of GP and it doesnt look good.....

Thats my home town too so its really sad to see.... my rents still live there but are a little more up stream at the moment.... just a flooded garage so far....


2nd floor apt doesnt suck so much right about now....

Stay dry man!!!

 

I had no power for several hours this afternoon up in N Garland. Firewheel Town Center was total dark.

 

so far we have been lucky, nobody has flooded from our street as far as I know, we are considerably higher up than they are down there near I20 all that runoff from our drainage ditches pools around I20 since it goes up hill on either side.

 

This rain suck

 

man and i hard to go out to the store yesterday at the worst part, it was a lil fun i got to admit, but when i saw that my bumper was about half way in the water, it wasnt do much fun anymore. LOL. this was in the altima BTW.

 

eek.

my brother was out there in his integra, said his car was struggling to get through the I20 & carrier intersection, and it was cutting on and off and smokin,
lucky for him that the stock intake piping is a small hole comming out from under the top of the hood.
he would be 2/3rds submerged before it started taking in water.

 

man! i saw no flooding in arlington. maybe because i'm close to I20 and the grade takes all the water there.

good luck lupe, stay dry. at least it's supposed to stop today.
