No idea how much we've gotten in Dallas, but I felt like I swam to the office this morning.

This was around 11:30 this morning in North Irving. The green railing you see is actually the top of the bridge that connects the apartment complex to the canal walkways.



Here's how high the bridges are:

A lot!

Normally you could drive across this road. I wasent able to get out during the heavy stuff but got out for the aftermath





You can see the waterline on the wall in this one. A couple lives were lost during this and many homes and businesses destroyed.

In Houston we got a bit over six inches. I got an e-mail from my mom in Tulsa, OK and she said she emptied her rain gage last night at 15 inches and it was still raining!
