    I don't think it's rained in Austin for about a month, it's threatened to a couple of times but that's about it.

    I saw drizzle today in N. Austin. Took me a minute to figure out what was happening. It had been so long since I've seen it, I was wondering what that was falling from the sky. No sign of it w/in an hour, though, except for the spots on my windshield. Looks like it's going to be a while before there's even a chance.

    I thought I felt raindrops on my head today, but it could've been a bird pissing on me.

    The last time I remember it rain was when it was still cold.

    It drizzled here at UH for a few seconds earlier. Hopefully I see rain in Sugar Land tonight (huge drought in my neighborhood, water already being rationed).

    Perhaps my thread of pointing it out is saving Texas!

    Nope. It was Rick Perry's proclamation for everyone to pray for rain.

    Just be thankful you're not getting hammered as we have been up here the past week. :(

    That's a strong looking line of storms heading this way.

    How are you doing up there? I've been expecting a "[Help] Sandbags" thread for a while now. ;)

    Been pouring here in N.Austin/Round Rock for over an hour now. FINALLY! Each of the last 2 nights, I could see the line of storms moving east just north of my house.

    This is if for at least a week so it's good to get an actual storm for once...
