NEW RECORD: The NWS has updated the flood gauge for the Guadalupe River at Hunt, Texas to reflect a record crest of 37.52 feet, the old record of 36.6 was set July 2, 1932. And apparently July is the month for flooding on this River, because now 3rd place crest was July 1987

The 8.8 earthquake was the strongest in 14 years and ties for the 6th strongest in history. The strongest quake in recorded history is the 9.5 quake in Chile in 1960.

Kerr County Flash Flood ‼️ The headwaters of the Guadalupe river have received 2 to 4 inches of rain over the last hour. The Guadalupe river is rising and will likely rise up to 6 feet downstream and into Kerrville. this is a life-threatening situation.

One month ago, 12 inches of rain in 3 1/2 hours would be the worst flash flooding disaster in America in almost 50 years. Here is the terrifying radar loop of that night.

No early fall in this forecast. If you like it hot, for most, the third week of August will not disappoint. Folks in the southwest should look forward to a decent break from the heat.
