I live in Idalou but work out near the airport. Hwy 114 is down to one lane in many areas. I've driven that highway for 30 years and have never seen that amount of water across the road. Regis street from 114 all the way out to the jail was completely covered in water. I left my house at 1820 and was surprised to see 2x4's floating in my front yard. The forecast's say we're not done.
Thank you so much for the rain dear Lord, but please keep us all safe.

Originally posted by Playa View PostThe courtyard at our church flooded, seeped into the sanctuary a bit. We pumped approx 37,000 gallons of water out of there this evening.
Great moisture for planting season, but going to be a while before they can get a tractor in a field

On a side note, I had another officer tell me that half of Ralls is under water. Can't confirm that yet, but I do know that Lorenzo, Ralls, Crosbyton and Cone got absolutely hammered with rain yesterday and today.
I spoke with a gentleman that runs cattle out near East Afton and he informed me since May 1st he's had over 12 inches of rain according to the gage on his pens.

Don't I Know it. The 3rd and the 4th ain't much shorter.
East Afton ain’t a town that gets referred to often, even in these partsLast edited by CaprockRoamer; 05-24-2019, 10:54 PM.

Originally posted by talltexasshoote View PostThere will be lots of acreage go into milo in the counties around Lubbock if it doesn't turn hot and windy in a hurry. With all this moisture bumper crops could result. With most of the Midwest flooded out grain prices should be solid this year as well. I hope this all happens. Geese will surely die if it does.
The hail got all or most of the corn that was up between Shallowater and Abernathy.
pray for rain
