Full Coverage: Halloween Weekend Storms
"At 3:30 in the morning there was the most unbelievable lightning and thunder and crashing sounds outside," said Kathleen Mooney with E-I-E-I-O Organic Farm.
Mooney and her young son run E-I-E-I-O Organic Farm. The farm is on Cypress Creek, an area that wasn't hit as hard during the Memorial Weekend flood, but was devastated this time.
Near Jacobs well natural area floodwater swept cars out of a parking lot and damaged dozens of homes.
This wasn't the first time Mooney's farm has flooded.
"Two years ago we evacuated upstairs," said Mooney.
The Halloween flood of 2013 nearly wiped her out. But this flood was worse.
"We resurrected the farm and we came back alive and everything was thriving. This flood happens and everything's devastated again," said Mooney.
On Sunday, Mooney will be doing what she does every Sunday, selling at the Mueller Farmers' Market.
"I'm going to be selling mayonnaise and pesto and the few crops I can get out of the field that are delicious and organic and flood crazied, but I will be there. Farmers show up -- we do what we say we're going to do," she said.
And then she’ll return to the farm where volunteers will be working to clean up one more flood.
The Blanco River Regional Recovery Team, the long term recovery group that was established after the Memorial Weekend flood, is also assisting those affected by this flood.
