    <p>Hurricane Harvey has had an impact much farther inland than many people may recognize.</p>

<p>Although the storm slammed into the Texas Gulf coast, its sheer size has meant heavy rains as far inland as Austin, 200 miles away.</p>

<p>Former Prescott resident Christina Jackson lives near Austin in Niederwald, Texas, where she and her husband, Josh, manage an RV resort on a private lake. She said Monday was the first day it hadn’t rained since the storm’s effects began to be felt Thursday.</p>

<p>“Our lake flooded, and we’ve had to evacuate people for the last three days,” she said. “We were pulling trailers out with our truck.”</p>

<p>Jackson said they stayed put at the resort, having moved to higher ground, but “a lot of other people had to go to hotels or find another place to go.”</p>

<p>The rain was been torrential, she said, with 20 inches falling in two days.</p>

<p>By comparison, Prescott receives an average of about 17 inches of rain in an entire year.</p>

<p>“The Colorado River, just upriver from us, is up 53 feet,” she said. </p>

<p>There have also been strong winds in her area, with sustained speeds of 60 mph.</p>

<p>Jackson said her husband’s parents, who live in Corpus Christi, much nearer the center of the storm that made landfall Friday, had experienced one of those good luck stories that can result from major natural disasters,</p>

<p>“They were able to go back to their house (Sunday) and, luckily, their house was one of the ones that didn’t get touched too much,” she said. “Their tree just fell down in the back and they got some holes in the roof. </p>

<p>“But around them, their whole neighborhood was destroyed.”</p>

<p>Monday afternoon, Jackson said she didn’t know whether the winds and rain would continue — “The storm is looping back around from the Gulf and they’re saying it may pick up speed again and come back through” — and she and Josh could be in a vulnerable position, because now, the roads have been so heavily damaged that they likely wouldn’t be able to evacuate if it becomes necessary.</p>

<p>The experience has been surreal to Jackson, who just left the U.S. Navy in February.</p>

<p>“This is all new to me. I’m used to Arizona dust storms, maybe a Prescott snowfall here and there, but nothing like this.”</p>
