Flood
So most of San Antonio is currently under water. We have not had a big flood for about 2 years and it looks like today may break that streak. The calm stream that usually runs through campus and is normally about three feet deep has gone up to about 30 feet past its normal banks and is now a raging river. The river was still rising as of an hour ago and it only needed to rise about five more feet to start washing out into the parking lot my car was in before I drove away. Normally I can look out my window and see the downtown skyline, but right now I can only see about two hundred feet. I can barely even make out the outline of Alamo Stadium, which is just across the street. I am on high ground now and am safe, but was hoping to drive to Houston Tuesday night and it looks like that may not happen now.
