Just north of sugarland, the S to N storm blew over, waiting to see what we get of the W to E.

There was a tornado in The Woodlands Sunday morning in Grogans Mill. It sure raises the pucker factor for tonight's storm.

First pass of heavy stuff past cypress waiting for the next wave.

Flight was delayed. Shuttle driver was an idiot for parking, be careful for those riding hardy toll rd

Got this text from mom in Concan, "6 people spent the night Sat. With a body of one of their friends that drowned til they were rescued Sunday morning by chopper. They were caught on an island by rising waters. "

At 7 bluffs.

Thought and Prayers...... That is just horrible

Just drove from southside of Lake Travis back to Sugar Land late this afternoon. We were caught in the storm that hit Bastrop, but made it through before 71 was closed. Some of the worst rain (and wind) I have ever driven in. Were about 10 minutes behind my sister on Bee CreeK road at the start of the trip. Had to turn around at a low water crossing and find another way out. Flood gauge showed 2 ft of water rushing over the road. When we called her, she said there was no water on the road when they went through. Pretty scary....

Luckily no one has been injured or reported missing from the flooding in bastrop

A friend heard we have gotten 5 inches of rain tonight in the cypress area.

A good site for Harris county rain gauges

One of my friends texted me to let me know that their bay house is getting pounded right now in Sargent, TX.

Stay safe out there everyone

We have only gotten around 3.5 inches tonight. I stand corrected.

In Hays County near Austin, up to 400 homes have washed away. "We do have whole streets that have maybe one or two houses left on them, and the rest are just slabs," said Kharley Smith, emergency management coordinator.

More than 1,000 more homes were damaged, and waters washed two main bridges away in Hays.

While flood warnings and watches were winding down in most places overnight, a new flood watch loomed from Monday into early Tuesday for Hays County.

They are asking the Rockets fans to stay in their seats.

More heavy rain and lightening just west of the Brazos in Greatwood (Sugar Land). Headed towards Houston.

Houston emergency management being interviewed on TWC.

Let us know how we can help.

National Weather Service just declared a flash flood emergency in SW Harris County. Saying 6"-8" already with 2"-4" more tonight.

Street in front of our place just south of I-10 is flooded with at least 2 cars in it. Rummel Creek just west of us is out of its banks per the flood control gauge. If it keeps raining like this the intersection of Sam Houston and I-10 will be underwater soon if it's not already.

Just said I-10. Is about to be underwater at white oak bayou.

Not sure I'd believe that. If that's the case the heights would be almost completely underwater.

If you check the gauges On the website above white oak is out of its banks in the heights.

Looks like the Brazos is gonna reach flood stage. Praying for some dry weather and some strong dams.

Beeville and central bee county (granted, I'm there only one of y'all here) was tornado warned. One good short cell with wind, rain, and hail. Possible funnel cloud spotted south of town.

It's lulled now, but another cell is moving in from George west area.

Where?? At the Brazos?

Just repeating what the national weather service said. Not sure if true.... But absolutely possible given the circumstances.

Whiteoak at Heights is over 2 feet over banks per Harris County Flood Warning System.
