We're safe where we are, just had lots of rain this morning, but around 11 a.m. it cleared off and was sunny, hot an humid this afternoon. Beautiful day, but it was the first time this year that I felt the heat.

Eagle Pass got hit hard, 10 dead, 7 on US side, 3 on Mexican side: http://www.cnn.com/2007/WEATHER/04/2...ths/index.html
Check out the pictures in the gallery. Lots of destruction. The neighborhoods affected are very poor, so hardly anyone had insurance. The Red Cross is calling for donations and the governor is trying to get federal assistance, but the feds don't care too much about poor border towns.

Eagle Pass is 250 miles from us.
