Lake Texoma is rising sharply (nearly a half foot in the past six hours).

Currently sitting 1.75 feet below the spillway at 638.25 feet above sea level.

Should go over the spillway again by midday tomorrow.

I've only had 1.4" of rain here(including whatever fell yesterday and most of that had fallen by 7:30am this morning)... amazing how most of DFW got in the dry slot all day.

Just west of DFW we had at least light to moderate rain almost all day.

"At this moment, there are 1.3 million gallons of water per second coming into Lake Texoma. They are releasing about 250,000 gallons per second."

8-10 inches in Beaumont Wednesday and Wednesday night caused a lot of flooding, thanks to Bill. Car rescues off Eastex Freeway. Insane rain.

Posted: **Thu Jun 18, 2015 8:11 am**

I received 2.6" from Bill. Thankfully not enough to cause many issues. It was just enough to allow me to leave my sprinkler system off for a while longer as dry spots were starting to develop. Sending prayers to areas affected by the flooding.

KXII's rainfall map totals from Bill here in the Red River Valley.

Some spots near Marietta and Ardmore in southern Oklahoma had up to nine inches of rain while as much as 12 inches fell in Montague County south of the Red River.

While we are on the subject of rain, one of our local weather station guys last night said that even if the rain completely stops for the rest of the month, Austin is already above normal rainfall for June.

He also said that if it did not rain AT ALL for the rest of the year, we will still be above normal. Kind of amazing since we are not even halfway through the year.

The EWX put this graphic together.
