    Glad I live in the higher elevation! 120ft above sea level has it's benefits! Meanwhile Tampa and St Pete areas are still underwater. Lol. Some folks have been without power since 4:30

    Every other Facebook post was someone showing flood damage.

    It's gonna be freacking 103 with 30% humidity here in COwTown today, how about y'all send some of that BEAUTIFUL rain over here?


    Bayshore getting flooded is nothing new, heck it happens almost once a year, but Belcher and Alt. 19? UNBELIEVABLE!
