What website is this graph from? I'd like to look near my house.
Does anyone know what would cause all of my garage doors to stop opening? The buttons have all gone unlit, and all 4 aren't responding. We don't have that much flooding, just thought it was weird.
We still have power

I'm flooded in. Glad I bought lots of food from grocery store cause I'm hungry.

The box that controls that circuit went out. Try reseting the GFCI. If that doesn't work you'll have to replace the GFCI.
KHOU evacuated due to high water
Me and Ag neighbor just knocked down section of fence in neighborhood to aid drainage as that area was bottleneck last year.
Some dumba$$ neighbor walks over in his rubber boots. I'm thinking he'll help out. He says nothing, takes pics and walk off. Hard not to wish bad things on folks like that.

How much heavy rain should be expected?
I would have been a smaryazz and asked him if he wanted my name and house number as well

Thanks both of you, I will give it a shot
Another round hitting Spring Branch now.
My wife and woke up to a loud crash at about 2AM.
The responsible party:
Thankfully it fell away from the house, and no one was parked on the street.
Guess I'm going chainsaw shopping sometime soon.

No problem, hope it works for you. The exact same problem happened to me last year during the Memorial Day flood. Hope you just have to reset it!
That was it, just the gfci thanks
We've been high and dry in Oak Forest so far. Very thankful for that. We're in newer construction, so a bit higher.
Rain just picked up again.
Lots of others here in OF haven't been so fortunate.

I haven't left the house (in park lakes just north of fall creek), but the main problem she may see is at 59 and the San Jacinto to river (btwn kingwood dr and 1960). During the last big flood, the highway 59 main roads were dry, but the feeder roads and business all flooded out. The sooner she tries the better (because the more rain in N Houston, the higher the San Jac will rise).
Storm inlets are full in Spring Branch (Wilchester). We've been very lucky so far, but more rain is going to cause some serious issues. A few neighbors have already experienced water in their homes.
We need to continue to pray Texags friends. The worst is yet to come.

Not in town, but neighbor says our place at Althea and Oak Forest is good. Yard flooding hasn't been as bad as Memorial day.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
one poor girl is going the KHOU live stream now up by greenspoint. she's the only one left i guess.
How is it now this morning? My parents live on Sapphire Circle just a few houses north of the boat ramp. They were up all last night, creek got within 4 feet of their foundation but has since receded. Apparently there was a significant drop at some point, so I was wondering if water started going over the dam, not just the spillway.

They're leaving now.
I get their job is to report but to shove a mic in someone's face who just waded out of their neighborhood and narrowly escaped with nothing left is sickening.

I was just watching that on CBS News Live on YouTube (I live in MN) and poor thing is having to hold it down herself since they can't toss it to someone else.
