Cars flooding in driveways down the other end of Carter Creek from me. I've got sewage backing up into my house and possibly into the storm sewers from the looks of stuff flowing out of the manhole and the smell out here

I emptied one gauge at 6". The other stops recording at 6" and then it had another inch to overflow. It was over.

Now horrible lightning and we are about to catch it again.

I quit. I just give up.

Coming down the newly finished Wellborn Rd was a nightmare. Right lanes were flooded and not sure how some cares made it, was worried about my truck.

Car flooded in ditch next to furniture store, think they missed the road turning as you couldn't see road vs ditch....

Royder was flooded with stalled car at GP intersection....

Thankfully only 1" in that last line. Not that it had anywhere to go.

My house in Bee Creek has flooded for the fourth time in four weeks.

That's after installing a second French drain last week for another $3600. I'm about to have a quarter life crisis.

6.5 inches in just over two hours. Worst I've seen it since moving here 4 years ago. HWY30 and Harvey area.

Dumb question for the water experts: is all this rain at least helping our aquifer or does the runoff negate that?

I am no water expert. But I think what happens North/Northeast of BCS is what matters for our aquifer.

Get out now and enjoy these temps. This is as good as it gets until November!

Rain intensity was incredible.

2 weeks ago we had 6" in <4 hours.

17.89 inches in past nineteen days, 10.47" in May.

Sure glad we didn't get the wind Houston did. As I was outside trying to redirect water flow, I kept thinking about how soggy the ground was and watching for trees to topple over on me. This was such a wild, unexpected storm.

They had 80-100 mph straight line winds plus the tornado that came from Waller. A Cat 1 hurricane.

Tapped out at just over 5 inches. And yes Houston got crushed.

my rain gauge in Bee Creek had leaned over when I checked it earlier but still had 4" in it when I straightened it out.

Another inch after that, so at least 5" today.

Neighbors tree fell over the fence and is now mostly 15-20 yards into my back yard.
Just missed going into my pool so Im grateful for that.

It's been a crazy month re: rainfall.
