Frio River Flood 6-26-07



Well, FrioMan is finally here to let you know whats going on at the Frio River and in the Concan area. My plans are to keep yall updated on current weather, river conditions, events, who's who, where's what, and whatever else I can help you with.

Sooo...here we go! The night before last, the West prong of the Frio got 5" of rain, the East prong received 8". The result was a rise on the Frio of over 18' here in Concan. However, vacationers rest easy. Contrary to what you hear in the news media, the Frio River is back in it's banks, and clearing rapidly. We even had a lady call and tell us that she heard,(THIS IS FALSE) " The Frio River will be shut down by Sunday because they will be releasing a lot of water from the lake."Lake! What lake? We have no lakes on the Frio River anywhere close, or upriver of us. The river comes up, then goes down almost as fast. I was watching a few tubers who already got back in this morning, but it is always best to wait for the waters to clear completely. If we don't get any more rain, that should happen by sometime tomorrow. It's been a great Summer so far, and this added water will make it fantastic for many weeks to come. Give us a call, we still have several openings. But please check out our website first. Our availability calendars are always updated immediately following a booking.
I'll prob be back this evening with more pics, so check back often, or better yet...talk to me!
