Some of the information coming out of the TX flooding is astounding.
Parts received nearly a foot and a half of rain in a 24-hour period.
It was a widespread area of large amounts of rainfall, so a ton was dumped all over this Hill region of the state.
The river rose 29 feet in an hour (from 3 feet to 32 feet) at one spot.
From 9am to 10am the river rose 1 foot every 2 minutes!
This kinda sums it up well.

The Kerr County area experienced an extraordinary rainfall event, with 10 to 12 inches of rain falling in just a few hours on July 4.
The volume of water that poured down is estimated to be more than 100 billion gallons, a staggering amount that surpasses the daily flow over Niagara Falls.
