Rain

Today was the second straight bout of rain for Dallas-Fort Worth, after tainfall exceeded 2 inches in many locations Tuesday – about what Dallas-Fort Worth can expect, on average, in an entire September.  he storms snapped power lines in places, and more than 11,000 scattered power outages were reported this morning, most of them in the Dallas area.  At local airports, the weather caused a few cancellations and other delays. American Airlines reported 22 flights canceled at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, and Southwest Airlines had a handful of delays at Love Field.
Tropical Storm Hermine came ashore near the Texas-Mexico border Monday and took a northerly swing that carried the center of the storm over San Antonio.  The heaviest rain, up to 2 inches per hour, blew up the Interstate 35 corridor after dropping a foot of rainfall in Central Texas. By 10 a.m., some areas had seen 5 inches of rain, and showers stretched south all the way to San Antonio.
