Keeping up with the approaching storms listening to the bouncing of the ball Mr. B. is playing with in his room. The weather service’s Web radar is the best. Hope it keeps working. It sometimes picks storm events to crash. If it does I can watch them on KXAN and KVUE, though they are thirty minutes to an hour behind, to the weather service’s twelves minutes or so.
I saw the last batch on the service radar coming swiftly from the southeast, so when I went to the grocery I was probably the only person in that store not to be surprised when I came out and it was pouring. Soon stopped and I hardly got wet. But the western storms, some of which have already dropped almost 6 inches in the San Saba River, northwest of us, are moving much more slowly. Since they’re due to continue east through tomorrow night, it’s not hard to believe in river flooding. No rivers around the rancho, fortunately. The Guadalupe and Colorado well south of us are the likely candidates.
