It almost makes you wish for a weak hurricane or tropical storm to push inland at the Texas coast...something with a lot of rain and not so much wind to dump a few inches of rain at least. Wouldn’t end the drought but could at least save what’s left.
That wont happen until at least Sept
Earlier this week, I read that people are avoiding outdoor swimming pools in Oklahoma City because the water is just too warm.
"The area pools are not crowded because the water is so warm, jumping into it is like jumping into bath water," said Damon Lane, meteorologist at ABC News affiliate KOCO in Oklahoma City.
Caution is advised with blue-green algae and bacteria that thrive in stagnant lake water.
I am hoping for a hurricane or tropical storm and I hope it comes right here to our ranch here in east Texas. I have about 150 head and it is bad. I am luckier than most. Many are simply selling out.
