Well, it's taken a very long time but Summer has finally hit Texas. I don't know if Texas news filters around the world, but after several years of drought, Mother Nature has seen fit to refill all the lakes and reservoirs in just one season. Both May and June have set rainfall records for most rain in one day and one month. Here in Corinth we received 8" of rain in one evening and the city of Austin received 19" in one day! Several people have drowned after being swept away when rivers have crested their banks and many counties have been declared disaster areas. There are few boats out on the lakes currently as the launching ramps and access roads to them are still under water. The weather has only just recently settled down and the temperatures are just starting to rise to summer norms. We're seeing mid to high 90's and should be hitting the 100's any day now. With all the standing water slowly evaporating the humdity is extremely high so the perceived temperature is much higher.
