Hurricane update - 1 July

Hurricane Alex has made landfall about 110 miles south of Brownsville, TX, with winds of 100 mph, gusting to 130 mph. The storm is now well inland and weakening. The main problems will be rainfall, with 8 to 12 inches already falling over northern Mexico, and 4 to 8 inches over southern Texas. If you're in that area, please be extremely wary of flash-floods, which can be life-threatening. Please monitor the output of NWS Brownsville and Corpus Christi for further details.

  1. We live between Corpus Christi and San Antonio and got into a terrible wind and rain storm yesterday. Much needed rain as always to green up the grass for the cattle but we don't like to see the havoc the hurricane causes for some people.
