Texas is a state in desperate need of rain. In yet another Mother Nature twist of irony, the recent tropical storm that dropped buckets of rain on the gulf coast could be the culprit of the fires in Texas. The back end of the storm was empty of precipitation, however the heavy winds knocked power lines onto the wickedly dry Texas terrain causing fires to flare up in many areas. Communities around Austin were losing homes the fire raged so fiercely. Well over 1,000 houses were taken down by blaze. In the radio family, Emmis broadcast engineer Duncan Black lost his home and a car in the community of Bastrop.
