Friend had offered a cabin 3 months ago, the weather looks GREAT. But there was an Oops, went in to get directions at 1130 in LR this morning "I can't let you have the cabin" Various reasons that equated to changing his mind, when we where headed out Wednesday morning, no less.

Went to NLR, clear up a couple of unrelated things, bumped into somebody I knew, this was around Noon and told him what had happened. "No, problem, you can have my house in Fairfield Bay, drive me up so I can pick up my car and you can stay the week" Talk about a lucky break! He has a place 1/2 mile away, so picking him up is a breeze.

The World is different to the one I grew up in, got an orphan out this morning who had taken 4 months to get a job, one less headache and was going to stay a month. On the proviso housekeeping would be done in lieu of rent -Never happened.

Now, hopefully an earned break and good weather.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20825890 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 15:12:11 EDT Re: Weather http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20779097 robbin : Actually the problem seems to be with the growth. My well almost went dry in the mid 90s and again about 2001. But it never did. It did go dry in 2006 from about July 4 to Christmas. Now it went dry again about the first of July. I am migrating to a rainwater system but am not there yet. :huh:

My well was drilled about 1980 -- it's a good well, but there is just too much demand on the Trinity Aquifer.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20779097 Sat, 12 Jul 2008 02:21:05 EDT Re: Weather http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20769781 MrMaster : rain water in the midwest drains into the mississippi. Texas would miss all that rain.

What's scary is after having record rains last year that the water table would be in such a disarray only a year later.

Careful what ya wish for :huh:

Take it down another 25', don't worry though the water table is rising so friggin high up here, there is no telling how much water is under the desert in TX, creeping your way, down there. Have no idea after several months, why TX would be dry...It must be a friggin crime, that's not on the books yet! :D

Must have something to do with LONGHORNS, drinking everything dry, send some up North!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20747613 Sun, 06 Jul 2008 01:07:08 EDT Re: Weather http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20747564 robbin :

So much for Greers Ferry this weekend! If it was not for the lake across the road I would have gone crazy by now! Month after month of shitty weather and always on the weekend.

:(

Happy 4th alternative.

[Edit] I got Jbob and his waverunner, my boat and we managed to sneak in about two hours on the lake across the road, had a nother friend that needed DEPENDS ;) and wouldn't risk the weather. But we had fun and shots to prove it! Na, I'm not posting them.

Then it rained/stormed, well ducks go in, but we come out with lightening around. Course we just made it out.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20741641 Fri, 04 Jul 2008 13:13:03 EDT Re: Weather http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20484855 McSummation : Yep, barrel on down.

A large hail zone passed only a mile or so north of us (one reported as being 4") and a "rotation" on the radar passed a couple of miles to the south of us at the same time. Two more cells to go for this evening. This is the most excitement we've had in many months.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20484855 Wed, 14 May 2008 23:49:07 EDT Re: Weather http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20483384 Kiwi : G'Day mate. Nice site to bookmark.

The problem is when the White river floods it directly affects how much water the Greers Ferry dam will let out and it still looks like the White river is a problem. Last time I heard (Three days ago the Lake was barricaded from launching any boats).

Course, I could always barrel down to Texas :D ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20483384 Wed, 14 May 2008 19:30:34 EDT Re: Weather http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20482814 McSummation : Would this help: »www.srh.noaa.gov/lmrfc/forecast/···te.shtml]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20482814 Wed, 14 May 2008 17:41:46 EDT Re: Weather http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20482701 Kiwi : Looks like the Winter got a last dig in, so much for a vacation.

Hey, anybody have an update on Greer's Ferry, I have two weeks off [Last week of this month] and very much overdue, as I have had to cancel the last four scheduled vacations; now I'm faced with no access to Greer's Ferry lake because of the White River high water. I really need this break, badly. If I took all my leave I would not have to work until the first week of November, but that does not help me now.

Anyone in the vicinity of Greer's that can establish the expected public access to the lake?

Thanks]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20466574 Sun, 11 May 2008 18:50:53 EDT Re: Weather http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20134678 Shaggy : That was really Shreveport. It was gone by Saturday though. It`s gonna be a crazy spring this year, just like last year :(

I see Conway stepped clear of almost everything, wonder how that happened. Now it's getting pretty darn chilly, heat is back on in this house, lets guess; ICE tomorrow.

How are the other Southern States doing, you think? I see TN got a good hit too. LA should be wet by now.

I lost power for a little bit, and I didn't get out to vote, but otherwise in good shape considering the storms that ran through here.

I guess I need to round up my coat for tomorrow and put the shorts away.

I got into a wee bit of a debate today regards which month Feb/March was going to worse for the South Central area, in the past though the weather as such and the axis of the planet and us; always has been Feb and then a rather jumpy period through the first of March.

My memory may not be as good as others, is it Feb or March before life settles into true Spring?

I'm convinced we are going to see less ice and snow and harder storms. You fellas down LA will probably get the worst of that mess and Tornado's around here and North.

I'm waiting for leaves in Spring too, can't be soon enough.

When the sleet started falling I was working on Rodney Parham. Within fifteen minutes of leaving that job site, I was almost hit three times. I then decided that work was over and headed north of the river. There was a three car pile up in the middle of the river bridge. It wasn't even slick yet!

If that little groundhog rat sees his shadow, I'll personally find his furry little butt and see what they taste like ;) C'mon Spring!

It's been several years, like 1984 since I saw a real winter, but that's aside the obligatory two week ice storm here and there.

So, hows the other four-State areas doing besides AR? Anyone else kinda find it strange that here it is almost the end of Jan and winter has yet to visit? -I don't care for winter, but it sure gets milder every year, as an observation.
