    A large area of 35 to 50 inches of rain showing up. This is why some rivers are at record levels and there is more rain in the forecast.
    The WPC 5 day rain outlook has several more inches of rain this week.

It's not good in the south central, southeast part of the state. Too many deaths due to folks not using their head.

One of my warehouses flooded last Friday, luckily we were able to get the HVAC equipment off the floor and onto pallets ahead of time. There's a few million dollars worth in that warehouse. The water rose to about 3" in the front quarter of the warehouse before it receded. Several inches fell in one hour. Lots of water moved through. I'm ready for a dry spell for a little while.

Been crazy there. News keeps showing clips of livestock trying to find high ground. Heard about the soldiers losing their lives, had not heard that there were several more. Hope the waters go down soon.

Been some flooding issues here but nothing like Texas is dealing with.
