People in the neighborhood say it has been about 5 years since we had a wet year. Quite a change from the 60+ inches per year that we got in Mobile. There, 40 inches per year was considered a dry year.
I get some FReepers location mixed up too, but know the screen names of many in the Austin area.
We had one wet year a couple of years ago that filled up Lake Travis from almost record low level. That was when Marble Falls had that rain bomb planted over it and they got something like 20” in 12 or 15 hours.
