2" of water in the house.

Nobody wants to talk to the honky on channel 2. Lmao. Would have been a great assignment for my man Isaiah thomas

Things are not right in the Klein area. In-laws house is flooded.... may or may not make it to my house depending on the roads. 2 cats in stow. I hate cats.

SOrry. Meant website, not app. It's a pretty sweet website though. Shows the rainfall all over the city and the levels in all the bayous and creeks.

There is also an Ap called RiverAp that will do the water levels.

Basically showing it could be really good or really bad.

Ad***** Reservoir at 94.12'. Currently would be 3rd highest among the listed records.

Ditches have drained in central spring branch and was able to pump out about 3" outta the pool. Gonna pass out for a few hours, good luck to the rest of y'all

Haven't seen a stoppage in west Spring Branch. Still coming down.

My family was due to fly back from Europe today but that was obviously cancelled. I'm still abroad and just hoping that my backyard hasn't become a pool in my living room yet (Richmond area)

You guys be safe and I appreciate all the updates

Based on the chart, HWY 6 floods at roughly 96' or 97'. House flooding at 103' or 104'. Top of spillway is 117.5'. I assume that any water over the spillway is not what Buffalo Bayou needs right now.

Thanks. My parents are near 518 and Pearland Parkway so not terribly far.

I really hate cats.

Anyone need a cat?

A squall line from Sugar Land to past Bay City looks like it's set up to train right over us for a while...

ok puddy. Don't forget to tell me to chug bleach and put my head in the wood chipper.

I've only ever said that to Buscemi, who spends his days trolling the Texags boards, and it's not a serious comment. Get real bub....that's entirely different that a fellow Ag (although you lack an Ag tag) that is obviously about to lose his home or at least most of his possessions in it that is in true dire straits. Your comment was uncalled for and you're a real piece of crap.

Pearland looks to be in a heavy rain band on the radar. Doesn't look like drizzle to me? Was that just a lull between showers when posted?

Good lord...

That's the one I was talking about...

From what I understand, Ad***** doesn't have a spillway. It just starts having water go around the ends of the dam.

The higher the elevation in the reservoir goes, the more water it takes to fill the next foot of increase. Getting from 100ish to 117 would take a gigantic amount of water well beyond anything forecast. This thing may very well get us past the levels we saw last year, but getting to spillway elevation is still very unlikely in my opinion. The reason the dam is given a high risk rating by USACE is not because it is necessarily at imminent risk of failure, but because of the loss of life and property that would occur if it did fail. If it were to fail, it would be the spillway and gate structures most likely and not the levee itself. So unless you are right on the buffalo bayou channel below the dam, failure of the dam wouldn't be high on my list of concerns.

This is turning out to be a worst case scenario. The models thought a lot of rain would fall and I said something about it earlier but this is above even what I thought might happen.

These 24 totals are unimaginable

Did the models finally agree on what would happen? Is this definite??

Time and place.
