Brazos and Colorado will probably be up for a while.

Just a trickle compared to what we got here last year from Harvey.  https://water.weather.gov/ahps2/hydrograph.php?wfo=ewx&gage=cbst2&hydro_type=2  I think they considered the flood from Harvey a 500 year event.  There's some interesting data on the page on this link.  "Historic" and "Recent" crests.

That's good, glad it ain't gonna mess with ya'll any. So when it floods, does any of the stuff washed away from up river make it down to ya'lls area? Its been awhile since I've been there, but the banks always looked pretty clean & free of debris from any past flooding. Over here, when we've gone to some friends property on the Guadalupe, we float occasionally & there is still all kinds of crap up in the trees...

Oh yeah.  You’ll see crap in the trees and along the banks.  It isn’t visible long.  I guess grape vines and such grow over that stuff pretty quick.  A lot easier to see in the winter.
