    As long as the rain lets up on the days I run, and it has, then i'm loving it.....it also beats baking like a vampire the whole summer. Im sure the triple digits will be back late july and august.

    Wow, we are really out of the drought! Crazy that the most of U.S. is in the drought. :eek:

    News in Austin said yesterday that we'll get no rain at least through mid-August. Welcome back exceptional drought.

    This guy seems to think the rain and "cooler" temps for Houston will continue through August.

    Hope he's right. Just an unbelievable difference between this summer and last.

    Lots of rain all over the State of Texas this weekend.

    Austin area expected to get lots of it, how's lake travis looking these days? RAINFALL TOTALS AVERAGING 2 TO 4 INCHES... WITH ISOLATED AMOUNTS OF 6 TO 8 INCHES POSSIBLE.

    I went to float the river in New Branfels a couple of months back, it was really high (fast flowing) at don's fishcamp.

    Mr. SwoLy-D, tight sweaters got nothing on those yoga pants that girls start to wear during the cold times of the year. And I like t*tties more than ass.
