Creek

Storm Update

Hope everyone survived the storm we just had and are preparing for the large amount of rain we are about to experience.

Chris and I did a circuit around the creek and cleared some of the larger debris cluttering the roadway. It looks like we only lost one tree (on Whitefish Lake Dr near Tappatio), though it was one of our more established ones.

The ducks appear to be loving the new food source that the increased water is providing. I did find one turtle on Lebanon that appeared to have drifted on the road, but appeared unharmed (maybe a little frightened). It was returned to the water's edge.

Please be watchful as you drive around the creek tonight for any additional debris that may block the streets and any ducks/turtles that may venture onto the roadway.

With the expected rainfall forecast, we should be able to save a bunch of watering days (fingers crossed), so be sure to adjust your watering system in the event you don't have a rain gauge attached.

Stay safe and keep dry.
