The news just reported that it is now the wettest May on record. Got another 2-3 inches of rain last night in Dallas. Here are some photos:

Depends on the age and breed. Typically between 1200 and up to 1800 lbs. A good heard bull will weigh around 2000 lbs.Originally Posted by Fishman15
Having been around cattle all my life, I didn't know they drank that much water either. I learned real quick when I started hauling water.

The last two days have been the worst here in Dallas. It is amazing how many folks just don't take the simple and timely advice: "Turn Around, Don't Drown!"Originally Posted by so-tex
There are roads flooded here this morning that have never flooded before. Ha! I was supposed to attend the faculty picnic this afternoon... at a little place called Sandy Lake Amusement Park. LOL I just bet it's under water right about now.

You just brought back some old memories. I didn't know Sandy Lake park was still there.Originally Posted by paolo59
The two lakes that provide water for Wichita Falls were at 19% capacity a month ago. Both are over the spillway today. It is stunning that we've gone from a devastating record drought to devastating record flood in less than a month.

Ha! There are some folks who think that a pickup truck has special powers. I have seen on the local news instance after instance of just that.Originally Posted by Brackneyc
There are only two dead here in Dallas from the flooding I believe.
