Not sad at all. This is very welcome.

So important to remember this! Many have commented about how this flood didn't do any damage and wasn't a big deal, but there's always the risk of quickly rising waters in a flash flood causing loss of life. While we're very grateful for the rain, we must not forget that it can be dangerous and we're all very lucky that there were no major incidents this time around!

No catastrophe because people were farily careful. It's still very dangerous when people try to drive past barricades and such.

@deanjohnson. I think you're misreading this a little bit. We were prepared for what was coming but there's no reason not to put out the warnings they put out. That is a lot of water but again we were ready for this time. And I don't know if you were down here in 2015 when the Blanco And the Guadalupe both flooded. But I was and that's a night nobody wants to ever see again

?? Sounds like White Bat Audio

Thanks! DJI Mavic 3 Pro Cine.

When you see one, you understand how debris gets so high up in the trees.

Canyon Lake did not move a inch overnight, strange!?

​@@russf.6473 Flood water has not reached the lake yet..

@@russf.6473 Clay Church, a spokesman for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, - which manages the lake - said this week's rains will help the lake level a little. "This rain that we have received over the last 24, 30 hours, or so, has been very beneficial, but unfortunately, it's not going to raise levels on Canyon Lake all that much - probably see an increase of 12 to 18 inches in actual lake levels," he said.

You know it does. Went up to Comal park about 3 weeks ago… That lake is looowwww.

Medina river supplies Medina lake not guadalupe.

Medina Lake is fed by Water Shed. Canyon Lake is Spring fed which is the Guadalupe River.

This has always been the history of Medina Lake. Very small catchment area!

@@garyloudermilk5177 Maybe. I do have to wonder though because there is currently a lawsuit going on, initiated by SAWS against BMA water, because they want out of a contract. I've also heard rumors about water being diverted away from the lake. I've also noticed it hardly ever rains in and around the lake. I've documented for over two years the strange phenomenon of radar showing storms dissolving on approach then reforming after passing by the area. Something strange is going on. We have neighbors whose wells are drying up. And with all of these things going on simultaneously I can't reconcile it as all natural occurrences.

Medina Lake has risen 4.6 feet since 22 July. It takes 11 inches of runoff over the entire drainage area to fill this lake. 2 year drought plus hundreds of dry ponds soak up all runoff from smaller rains.

All this water, The Guadalupe River, is destined for Canyon Lake, not Lake Medina. But lake Medina should have risen too?

@@cyclingtexas1670 The other commenters were right. I did check and it did rise a couple of feet as of today. I guess the reporting is delayed. The massive amount of rain occurred on the night of July 22 and wasn't reflected yesterday. It is reflected as of today though.

I remember it well! I was in junior high high living in Pipe Creek! Bandera and Kerrville were submerged!

U mean tha year the water touched the bridge in COMFORT/ and MY DADDY pulled out a dead body from a attic and became tha heart of tha CITY.......Yeah I herd about tha flood of 78'' . RIP MANUEL "BUCKY" CASTRO.....LOOK HIM UP FRONT PAGE OF THE AUSTIN STATESMAN.......NO CAP

My summer camp was cut off from the road for 2 weeks. No power, swimming pool for water. A national guard helicopter landed to ask what we needed.

looks like....i worked at those apts for almost 17 yrs....its actually been over that bridge 3 times since they built it

Yes! Notice that you can barely even see the pedestrian bridge. Amazing water.

You could walk across it the last few years. So grateful for God's blessing.

It’s not only Texas. It’s lakes all over the Country.

Wait, what? Are you serious? So people’s wells are going dry now because of this situation? Hmmm… Seems sketchy. Y’all know that SAWS is suing BMA water?

The only debate is the reasons for the lake being so variable during certain times. How much is due to drought, agriculture, or management by the various authorities overseeing the lake.

I was hoping Beryl might help it, but again, we missed the tropical rains.

Didn’t do anything,we didn’t get anything out of that storm unfortunately

@@Yoursunshine-ku9yi No tropical storm, no hurrican residuals. So sad about that!
