Good luck, stay safe to all who are getting on the roads if you are being evacuated.farmerjoe said:
I'm calling my parents in a bit to let them know so they can gather some things and get out at first light before more rain and/or traffic. They live by commonwealth elementary school.

Dog just woke me up to take him out. It's not raining but it's VERY windy in Tomball. Just checked and no tornado warning or watch though.

dlance said:Yep. Getting pounded right now. And just heard MoCoSO started knocking on doors along Rayford around 10PM asking people to pack a bag and leave because they're going to be under water by morning.Your Mom And Them said:
We're taking a beating here in Montgomery County. April 2016 has nothing on this storm. This is simply unreal to watch unfold in person.

Unless I am mistaken it is the homes above the dam that they are referring to with this. It will take up to 2 months to drain enough to get them dry again.

Ah, may have misheard. Is there any info as who what areas this might impact as water is released?
It's sitting at a projected high of 113.2, that should be reached around 4pm today. That's the 5:45 am update. Predictions show the creek at or above 108 ft until about Wednesday afternoon.Aggie MHA said:
Relevant to Rayford talk. Spring Creek is officially the 2nd highest it's ever been in recorded history. Sitting at 108.3'. Projections were 112'. Anyone see an updated one?

Wife has a friend in Memorial Thicket that (off memorial between Eldridge and Hwy 6) that needs help getting out. They have two small kids and the neighborhood is starting to flood. Any one know someone in that area that can help?

Basically it will impact Buffalo bayou as that is what the reservoirs drain to. So anything in that bayou's flood plain can expect sustained or possibly elevated flooding. Last I saw though they weren't incredibly confident on exactly how much that the bayou would rise

Call 211 or 911 if life in danger. Give exact location, as much detail as possible with regards to number of people, ages and any airborne and water debris for both air and ground crews. Helicopter, high water vehicle and boat crews all up and getting ready. Helicopter crews should be launching in next hour or so. Bright clothing and movement.
