Friends in Dickinson had to put the pets in a cooler and swim out. The water was at their waist and still rising. Dickinson is in really bad shape.
Had a friend in the same situation there but they got out around 9 this morning.

I have family in waterside estates in Richmond (I think this is close to Long Meadow Farms). I'd be interested in any status that could be provided as we are in Arizona and feel pretty helpless.
Cypress Creek is within 6 inches of Allison's peak. For this data point, it depends on how many more bands we have to go through.
I have friends in LMF and while the lakes have risen they seem to be in good shape in the neighborhood

Maybe not all bad. I've got a daughter there. She told me about 4:45 this morning that water was within about 10 feet of her house.
But it never got in and has since receded.
It's bad. Many homes in Dickinson have water in the 2nd story. Mcree Ford where my wife's car is currently being repaired is flooding. https://flic.kr/p/WUriz8
This is the quicklane which is in that parking lot of mcree

moved to Dickinson in 2nd grade and graduated in 94. Seeing lots of bad photos of flooding where I used to live.
No words to that
My street isn't even flooded off of telephone. Brother's house is fine but he did say that his street flooded last night. I haven't seen any flooding from any .of the neighborhood friends that posted on Facebook.
My family and friends in the league City area and work colleagues in Meyerland are in pretty bad situations. Sucks knowing there is not anything you can do to help until the water starts receding.

Have a friend down there. Their house has 2 ft of water in it and they're about to leave their house
I questioned the 50+" troll earlier in the thread. I'm beginning to wish I hadn't.
Even though it was a troll, it's unreal how close this may come to that, or maybe even surpass by the time it is all said and done.

I'm not that familiar with the area. She's in a newer subdivision so maybe that made a difference. Sorry to hear your news.

How is it a troll when there were several professionals warning it was possible? Some people just wanted to call BS because several of the last "potential disasters" didn't play out.
Cypress Creek from I-45.
I hope to God he is wrong.
I accidentally closed the website that had the bayou info.
Not the rainfall website but the bayou level map where you can click on the dots and it shows you current bayou levels in inches and projected.
Anybody help me out with s link please?

Anything you should do with electricity as water enters home ? Should you flip the main or will gfci take care of it...
Flip the main.
Flip the main IF you can get to it before water reaches any of the electric. Do NOT flip the main if you have to stand in water to do so.

I think that was me that posted that. I really REALLY wish I wasn't right.
clw04 - We have friends that also live in Waterview Estates in Richmond. So far they are good and no power loss. The spillway behind Waterview Estates is rising but everyone is safe and no flooding in homes. My wife and I also live in AZ and feel super helpless.

Yeah my cable (Uverse) is out too. Same area.TX04Aggie said:
Comcast seems to be out in my hood (north montrose a few blocks up from bayou). Got the rabbit ears out. Y'all stay safe. Somewhat lull in rain at moment here. Power has flickered a few times. But still on. Bayou is the highest I have seen it.
Good to hear. I know the lake is rising (they are on the lake) and got a little worried when I saw that Oyster Creek was rising as well.

The particular letter that I called out was confirmed to be a hoax a couple of hours later.
Saw this forecast on Category 6 blog just now...
The Dallas CBS crew is filling in.
Friend in friendswood with 3 children, tying to give her advice ... impossible now to flip without being in shin deep water. What should the coaching be regarding electricity now? They will have to wait out for floods to stop or be rescued from second floor in the coming day ... only boats now
