We received a slow gentle rain, what we call a million dollar rain as it soaks into the soil. Dallas got hit hard. Now I'm no engineer but when you are paving and roofing acres of land every day the water has to collect someplace.

We went from extreme draught one day to tornadoes & flooding the next!  It wasn't too bad in Lindale, but a tornado hit a few miles from us.
