Flooding Continues Along the Rio Grande

Posted by: Dr. Jeff Masters, 08:52 GMT le 10 juillet 2010

Hi everybody, Dr. Rob Carver filling in for Jeff while he's on vacation.

Things have quieted down in the tropics. No invests are active, and the tropical waves at sea don't have many thunderstorms associated with them. However, the moisture associated with Alex and TD Two is still bring widespread showers to Mexico/Texas which is contributing to flooding alon the Rio Grande. Here are several videos documenting the troubles along the Rio Grande.

Finally, here's a story about relief efforts in northern Mexico for villages cutoff by flood damaged roads and bridges.

Next update
Jeff should be back on Monday. Have a good weekend.

Quoting reedzone: I was in Hurricanes Charley and Frances (even though we had TS winds with Frances). 48 hours of sustained winds of 50-60 mph. took out power out for 2 weeks as if it was a Hurricane. Yet with Jeanne, nothing happened because it was smaller, more intense though further south. Charley, we lost power over night, came back on in the afternoon.. Though we had 2 hours of sustained winds over 75 mph. We are in the same general area, then. I don't remember which of the hurricanes it was that year, but I remember sitting in the bathtub of my mobile home, holding one dog in my lap, the other on my feet, and listening to the wind screaming thru the long leaf pines around us. I've never heard anything like that wind that went on for hours and days, it seemed. Nightmares, indeed! neighbors for weeks had no power at all, and many were just flooded out entirely.

Quoting hurricanelover236: Who here thinks the world is going to end in 2012? The earth will be here for 5 billion more years. Early in this time period, if the human race does not destroy itself, its technology will reach a synoptic limit after a few hundred thousand years and we will be traveling to the stars...pfffft...
