Riverwalk sa
Please tell me that walkway is not made out of wood..... with all those gawkers standing out there.......
The walkway and sides of the river are concrete. San Antonio has a floodgate system built in am ng that area to keep the water from getting into the businesses. They planned well. |

Prayers for all those affected. They reported 7.4 inches of rain in northeast Oklahoma this morning. We needed the moisture, but I am about tired of all this rain. We've had creeks out of their banks flooding roads and a firefighter lost his life in Claremore while he was on a rescue.
He and another were swept into a storm pipe. The other is in the hospital and expected to be ok. They couldn't get the one one that passed. They were rescuing a family from high water. Very tragic. |

Location: East of the Pecos | Prayers for all those in the flood's path. Please heed the early flood warnings and prepare. If it's risky, just don't go. Have an evacuation plan in place, flood waters rise very quickly. Here's a good article on how to prepare. It basically says move your truck and trailer to high ground during serious rain storms, keep halters in your truck, put ID's on your horses, load your trailer with water and feed ahead of time and be ready to load and go at a moments notice. It's better to be safe than sorry, so error on the side of caution and leave early enough to get to a safer place and wait it out. If your gut tells you something isn't right, pay attention and leave the area. I think the key point here is don't wait until the last minute. Nothing is worth the risk of losing your life or that of your animals. https://voices4horses.wordpress.com/tag/floods-in-texas/ |

Location: Texas!! | I'm going to make the drive to San Marcos tomorrow to try and find my camper... My son has been living there in a RV Park, for the last three years going to college. The park owners said all the trailers there are pretty much destroyed, but we are hoping we can at least get his clothes! They are looking for it by its lic plate number. He was home this weekend, (thank God!) but summer school starts Monday. |

| Many prayers for all involved. Don't like the flooding, but I am so grateful for this wonderful rain. Our land has been so dry for so long. We live in West Texas and it's actually starting to green up. We haven't seen the green in many many years. I seriously doubt I will ever hear of the majority of the lakes in Texas to be at capacity or close too, again in my lifetime. I can't imagine how fast the water is rising in some areas. |

Please be really careful on your drive to San Marcus we are expecting more rain tomorrow and I think San Marcus may be getting more to. |
