Super User roadwarrior Posted July 7, 2010 Super User Posted July 7, 2010 That's a lot of water! http://www.foxnews.com/world/2010/07/07/mexico-evacuates-tens-thousands-texans-leave-homes-flooding-hits-rio-grande/ Quote
Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted July 7, 2010 Super User Posted July 7, 2010 Wow, you're not kidding. Thats a crazy amount of water. Stories like that make me glad that I live down here in southern Florida. Floods like that never happen. I can deal with the odd hurricane once in a while, I'd hate to have to up and leave because a river is spilling over. Quote
Super User Raul Posted July 7, 2010 Super User Posted July 7, 2010 Yup, lots of water, Amistad Lake hasn 't had that water level since the mid 70 's, all the Rio Grande basin, ( from El Paso all the way down to Brownsville ) is on alert , not only because of Amistad, there are at least a couple of large lakes in Mexico that discharge their waters to the Rio Grande on the Reynosa/MacAllen area ( Marte R Gomez aka Sugar Lake and El Cuchillo ) which directly affect the area down below ( Matamoros/Brownsville ), the CNA has already opened the gates on those two. I called my friends Roberto and Demetrio to see how he they were doing ( both live in MacAllen ) and both said that so far everything is fine, Quote
