Katy, Texas: Did it Rain More Than Noah's Ark?
So, you wanna know how much it rained in Katy, Texas, last night? Well, buckle up, because we're about to dive into the watery world of weather reports. Let's hope you brought your inflatable raft and a sense of humor.
Katy: The New Atlantis?
If you woke up to a mini-lake in your backyard, you're not alone. It seems like Katy transformed into a tropical island overnight. We're talking Noah's Ark-level rainfall here, but without the animals (unless you count those pesky mosquitos).
Did Katy get more rain than Seattle in a year? Probably not, but it felt like it. The weather forecasters must've had a field day with this one. "Scattered showers," they said. "Light rain," they promised. Yeah, right! More like "deluge of epic proportions."
How to Survive a Katy Monsoon
- Invest in a snorkel: Because walking might be optional for the next few days.
- Learn to fish: You never know when your backyard pond might become a prime fishing spot.
- Build an ark (just kidding): But a waterproof shelter might not be a bad idea.
The Aftermath
We're still waiting for the official rain totals, but judging by the way my car floated to work this morning, I'm guessing it was more than a few inches. Let's just hope the ground can handle this much liquid love.
And remember, folks, if you see a duck wearing a life jacket, it's probably from Katy.
How To...
- How to build a makeshift raft: Use sturdy furniture, lots of plastic bags, and pray it doesn't sink.

- How to entertain yourself during a flood: Learn to play the ukulele, start a blog, or binge-watch your favorite show.
