Where'd the Wet Stuff Go? Theories From the ATX Streets
- Theory #1: The Breakfast Taco Betrayal: We've all heard the whispers: the rain gods are particularly fond of migas. Maybe, just maybe, Austin has skimped on the migas orders this year, leading to divine rain-rage. Solution? More migas for everyone!
- Theory #2: The Great Zilker Park Mud Run: Remember that time everyone had a fantastically muddy time at Zilker Park last year? Maybe the rain gods saw the leftover mud and figured, "Hey, they've got enough already." Time to break out the water balloons, folks!
A Glimmers of Hope (Maybe...Probably Not)
Now, hold on to your cowboy hats, because there have been a sprinkle (pun intended) of rainy days this year. We're talking a measly 0.0 inches on January 21st, according to that fancy weather data doohickey. But hey, a sprinkle is a sprinkle, right?
BREAKING NEWS: As of July 4th, 2024, it appears we might be getting a light drizzle! Let's all do a rain dance, just in case the weather gods are watching TikTok these days.
