It started raining Monday night and is expected to continue through the weekend. With temperatures in the mid 70's it's a good time to be a frog!

With rain like that you'll likely need dynamite or an electro fishing rig!  

The rain is constant, but the heavy rain comes in waves. A new warning has just been issued for "torrential rain" from 11:30 AM until 3:00 PM.  What's that mean, another foot?

good luck RW, this weather is just beyond crazy!

10"-12" of rain?? Thats serious flood weather.

That's in my home town yesterday. Southeast AR.

Toledo Bend is up 2' since yesterday!

That's 190,000 acres up 2' in 24 hrs & still rising!

Nah.  A fathom is six feet.  It has only risen a third of a fathom.

Wow, that is crazy. Best of luck to all of you guys keeping your homes dry!
