Rio Grande flooding

Thanks for the rain, Alex

We’ve had more than an inch since Tuesday afternoon, when moisture from the storm in the Gulf began flowing in. This afternoon we’re expected to get the outer bands of rain directly. Or as the National Weather Service says:

"SPIRAL BANDS FROM ALEX WILL BEGIN TO IMPACT THE LOCAL
AREA ON WEDNESDAY AND PROBABLY LASTING INTO THE FIRST PART OF THE
UPCOMING WEEKEND."

Appreciate it, Al. We do. Got little rain in May. Only fair to get more now. I will use the occasion to pull some weeds in the flower beds, the ground being softened up.
