Texas / Re: Catastrophic flash flooding along Guadalupe River, Texas

We keep hearing this from Big Media over and over ... but, really? It was preceeded by freaking 10 inches of rain
And Kerr County, Texas only gets 30" of rain per year ... so shouldn't getting 1/3 of that compressed into a span of just 2 days be considered a warning to get out??
(not trying to be a jerk in the midst of this terrible tragedy, just pointing out that common sense still helps a lot with basic survival ...)
One can have clear blue skies but the rain 50 miles upriver causes huge downriver flooding. Happens with little warning.
