I've gotten just over 8 inches here at the compound so far, and my stock tank is now overflowing. This is the first time in over a year and a half that it's been full. It never dried up completely, but it had gotten as low as I'd ever seen it in 12 years. It came up over 15 feet overnight. I know, big whoop, but I'm excited to see water rather than a big crater in the pasture. :D

Yep lots of water, the south has gotten more. I am glad Travis was at a 24yr low @25ft below level. They found a lot of stolen property lol...

I know a lot of places needed it really bad but damn I'm tired of watching it rain.

Our ponds are over-flowing just north of Texoma, too. One upside to all this rain is that scouting for deer trail habits is relatively easier in the rain - I've seen two good cedar-tree rubs just this morning with tracks running all over - torn-up undergrowth nearby and leaves/mud all thrown around, too. Looks like the pre-rut is on with the cooler weather.
A number of the tracks looked like boar.:)
