By golly we've had the rain! Early this morning the backyard gauge had about 4.6 inches that had accumulated over the past couple of days. The gauge tops out at 5 inches, so I emptied it to start over. As of around 4:45 pm CST it contained almost 3/4 inch of new rain. Anyway, here are a few photos from around town.
Anyone interesting in re-reading the Midland Reporter-Telegram's account of the flood of 1968 in Midland, as reproduced in this weblog last year, then click this link.
Great pictures. You should post them at the Wunderground picture page.

Bert, thanks for the suggestion. The other pictures at Wunderground are so much better than these that I'm reluctant to make it so easy for people to compare them.
But, thanks for the kind words.
