A quick 3-5.5" over a decent footprint... in an already extremely high water table and stressed waterways. That's some tropical storm type rain and one can imagine 50-100 year flooding from it.

Higher than 1955, and highest since 1938. 3’ above flood for that type of mellower topography is absolutely wild. That’ll spread out into some surprising areas for folks who didn’t think it’s possible. 150% of flood stage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the Mt Hope River in Ashford flows down to Mansfield dam which I assume is getting pretty high. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
