Thread: Saw the tropical depression Bill was heading your way

Randy, just got email from friend of mine that lives just SE of Dallas. Has had 3 1/2 inches just today before dark. Said it is just coming in waves. No telling what it is going to do in Oklahoma then supposed to come over in Arkansas again.

Tracker, looks like we are going to save you cajuns this time around. Don't know why but, the Corp has pretty well shut the gates on Texoma. TV says we'll be back over the spillway soon, if not already. No idea how much we got but, it was over my rain gauge which is 5". I'm thinking closer to 8" yesterday and it's still coming down right now. Just mist but, that's too much! Sure wouldn't want you guys to get wet!

Lot's of rain here Tracker, I am not sure when I will get to fish my home lake again. Was 30' high currently 20' high and now all this rain comes back!!! I am seeing lots of 2" totals, but the core has up to 11" of rain just in the last 24hr. About August we will be wishing for some of this rain!!
You all stay safe over there in Louisiana.

3.25" here in Harrah since yesterday. Saw I-35 is closed down around Arbuckle Mountains.

Redge, which of those monster lake's down there is your home lake?

Dr Nip, yes, I-35 is closed thru the Arbuckle Mts. Detour thru Ardmore to Dickson then north to Sulphur and back to I-35. Don't know about south bound lane.
Talk about shutting down the I-35 bridge over the Red River. Not due to water level, due to the debris accumulating around the piers and the chance it could take out the bridge. It's a mess down here to say the least. Texoma is at 639.79' and will go over the spillway later today...for the only time it has ever gone over the spillway twice in one year. And that will be the fifth since the lake was impounded. Even Lake Murray is now over the spillway by 3' as of an hour ago. And of course that means 77S is now closed around the lake.

Bob. . . Guess they will close the Roosevelt again thinking about heading down Monday but will probably just go 35 to 82 and up. . . Let me know if they close it. . . Thanks
