Rain ends in time for Rabbit Fest, drawing in crowds
By LYNETTE SOWELL

Over the past 35 years, the annual Rabbit Fest which draws tens of thousands to Copperas Cove every May has seen its share of tumultuous weather, from sweltering temperatures, to rain and hail, and one year, even a tornado warning.
This year, the rains ended Thursday and the weather remained partly sunny, although humid throughout the weekend.
A line of traffic on Avenue B sometimes stretched from the Copperas Cove Nursing and Rehabilitation Center all the way to City Park.
