Who is the ****y reporter for Channel 2 in Greenspoint? She sounds like she's trying to get slapped by the city councilman she found. "WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG?" Stupid slag can't understand why she hasn't seen a rescue vehicle in 30 minutes. Does she think there's some magic waterproof army that's magically in place to rescue everyone who ignores weather warnings?

Then she follows it up by tossing out some random rumors about dead bodies in the water. Classy.

They need rescue vehicles at Greenspoint! People are having to take their children to safety themselves! Neighbors are having to help neighbors! Hurry up water boats!

There is nothing else to report. Water is everywhere. Not as many stranded cars like Memorial day. This literally all they have to talk about because there is a camera crew there.

WTF is right. thats some ghetto stuff right there. "Hey La-a (LaDASHa), you and the boy get in the fridge and I'll float y'all out".

I guess whatever works....


I thought it was cool to see young kids/teenagers/men from the complex and other areas coming together and using refrigerators small boats and blow up mattresses to evacuate people and get them to higher ground. Everyone on first floor had 5-6 ft of water in their place and there were many babies. Was good to see these kids banding together and working their asses off to help others, when there are so many bad apples that typically hog the limelight.

What is frustrating is that, after this week, it probably won't rain again until the end of May.

I doubt these new stainless steel fridges float. Need to hang onto the older model, and add it to my stores of bleach and canned goods.

I think it's crappy how shocked the media sounds when it's just citizens helping each other out.

Media reporters are dirtbags. Always trying to make a story out of nothing. It's not surprising at all.

It's interesting how all these private citizens are starting to show up to help , but for some reason, the city can't get any vehicles out there.

Yeah gov't!!

I wonder if at some point, the city and counties just put special airboat divisions in place for the areas that always flood.

When I was driving towards Austin this morning I saw a small convoy of fire vehicles towing rigid inflatable boats headed towards Houston.

Probably because of no power.
Yep, probably just looking for power so they can e-file.

You already know Gov. Abbott will take all the blame. No way they can blame a Democrat.

I am far from a fan, and I think he sounds like an idiot, but I'm not sure what could have been done about this. You never really know if it's gonna be bad, or how bad it's gonna be, and what areas are going to receive crazy amounts of rainfall. Should we have the national guard at the ready any time a huge storm hits Houston?

Sh** happens. And Americans sometimes have to fend for themselves and help eachother out. Unfortunately too many people think it's realistic for the government to always be the superhero ready to swoop in as soon as anything bad happens.
