Having enough drinking water to get through the Summer was a very real worry only a month ago.
The weather of the past few weeks has been a dream, at least for me. I thought that I would share some of the pictures that I've taken. There were days when the radar would look fairly clear, but a couple of hours later you might be dodging tornadoes.
This has made for beautiful skies. I am not sure if our exact drought status as I write this, but most of our lakes are either at capacity, or rapidly filling.

Right after I took this, a tornado warning was issued.

After this one, it started raining and hailing so hard, you could barely see the road. Was thankful to get past the storm and see this...

I love storms, and with the drought, each one is something to really appreciate. It has continued to rain and storm. This was our backyard last week...

I had to go to Wichita Falls (the big city) last week. This was close to the Little Wichita River.

There were places where logs were stuck in fences. I do not remember seeing this much water around here in a very long time.
