The One shot they didn't do was an aerial shot of Barton Springs Pool which was a Class 4 rapides. I hope the Salamanders survived. Stevie Ray kicks it off. Sorry if germans.

Shoal Creek overflowing at S Lamar isn't anything new, but I don't recall the water creeping that far into downtown. Especially as far up as GSD&M to House Park, that shite is nuts

It'll be interesting to see if the new drainage project actually had a hand in fricking things up even more.

No shite....especially after watching them year up the street from Nueces down to the lake for the last year and a half, it's supposed to be the solution to Shoal Creeks issues.

Yeah no shite and agree Shoal Creek does flood often. I saw more water downtown walking around than I thought I would see. Probably got into some of the new high dollar condos. Waller Creek was a site to see though. Never saw it flow like that. The areas that got the brunt of it was Wimberly and San Marcos. Wimberly is one favorite areas. Would go down to Jacob's well often.

I ran down to Stag and picked up some things I needed. Several nice shirts, boots and that awesome cannibus candle they stock. Swept through Home Slice for a large pie to boot. I'm set.

Austin doesn't have the same type of residents as New Poorleans. We know how to act.

Lake Travis is at 657 as of today. 670 is considered normal so yeah pretty much back to normal minus the tons of debris they will have to clean out of it.

You should watch the video or footage of the flooding in Wimberly. That was really sad. Houses gone.
