South Braeswood runs along the north side of my complex and we are just west of Kirby. Luckily we are built up about 3 feet. This was at 6am.

Buffalo Bayou just before it goes under Voss. WAY out of its banks.

It's weird out there right now. Abandoned cars all over Westheimer and post oak

Here's the only pic from 59 I could get before my phone died. The Richmond 610 intersection was completely flooded with water going up the Best Buy doors.

How far up the Best Buy doors? Were the apartments along Mccue flooded?

I am selling a gently used 2011 F-150. I just had the carpets cleaned, that's why they're damp. PM me.

Not even going to try to go into the office today. No sleep last night, it was rough in SL. I don't ever remember seeing so much lightning like that.

I am on an island it appears. Fortunately my street falls off about 50 feet towards I-10. I have about 20-25 feet left.

Buffalo Bayou went as high as I've ever seen it. We are built up 40ft....

Anyone going into work today? I need to make it to Westheimer and Gessner but that looks like a no go at the moment.

Work at town and country/bw8. Sent boss the pic of that intersection, and now our Houston office has a rain day. Im going to take my plane up this morning and see if I can get some good shots of the reservoirs and the flooding, assuming I can get to the airport.

Download the "Waze" app. It gives you fairly good intel on road conditions because it has community based updates.

Me and my buddy had tickets but I had to leave town last minute for work so I didn't make it. He was there for the whole show and left after it was over only to spend the night sleeping in Denny's somewhere on I-10

Briar Forest around BW 8 is a weaving one lane road as you dodge all the abandoned cars.

Shepherd Forest here, east side of Ella. My street never flooded but I lost power around 11 last night. Still off, but it's a beatific day outside. My yard barely has any standing water.

Which direction are you coming from? I left Katy at 5:50 and made it to the Post Oak and San Felipe intersection around 7:45
