Rosalynn Carter is celebrating her birthday with Jessica today. Rosalynn has celebrated a lot more birthdays than Jessica, however. She's 84 today.
On August 18, back in 1983, Hurricane Alicia slammed into Galveston and Houston. Maximum winds of 125 MPH were reported along with 23 tornadoes with 14 of those reported from Galveston to Hobby Airport.
Rainfall amounts totalled more than 7 inches in Galveston and Houston got between 10 and 11 inches. They need that rainfall NOW more than it was needed back in 1983.
The remnants of Alicia continued to move up north and even brought light rains to Minnesota and Wisconsin.
ANOTHER DROUGHT NOTE FROM TEXAS
The town of Llano, near Austin, has set up plans to truck bottled water into town. If it doesn't rain soon the town will be bone dry. Imagine trying to take a shower with bottled water.
