I'm kind of wondering about the electric rates in Austin for the time being, Mansfield Dam is running wide open to keep Lake Travis from overflowing (It's part of the Colorado river and was created by the Army Corps of Engineers decades ago, pretty cool, eh?), at that rate we should see dirt cheap electric bills.

In Westlake Hills along the river they are praying that the rains do not continue, God forbid the dam overflows and their multi-million dollar riverfront homes get flooded. ;)

Ya'll batton down the hatches up north, and don't worry Cayne, you'll float by Austin before you hit Houston, and I also live in the hills, hehehehehehe. :D

Post by: Electric Eye on July 07, 2007, 11:31:32 am: Austin got major thunderstorms early yesterday evening, it was pretty cool watching the lightning strikes. Today is a mixture, sometimes sunny, sometimes very cloudy.

One thing is for certain, we will not have a water rationing period this year. ;)
