Not sure if ppsted, but CostCo in Pearland is open. Lines are long but theyre moving. Plenty of water and supplies at the moment.

We have friends evacuating Barker's landing (south of i10 west of eldridge). Waters continue to rise.

Anyone know status of 71 at La Grange? Can you get through to get to 77 North?

Have family in Greatwood area of Sugarland trying to get out. Does anyone know if 59 to the west of Sugarland is open? If they could get over to 36 or somewhere there, they could get a route North and get out of it. They have 2 kids and 3 dogs in two cars. Praying they can make it out!!

---

JRey just showed that 59 just southwest of sugar land is open but not sure if you can go farther southwest. She said to try 359 north of 59 and it will take you to Brookshire

Anyone got info near Hammerly and BW8 or Gessner?

Just made it back to Upper Kirby from Pearland. It took four different trips throughout the last couple days.

Assuming you came up 288. How about a road update for a concerned dad with a daughter in Pearland.

I just drove down 518 from Pearland to Friendswood to pick up some friends from a shelter. 518 is clear ezcept for one area just west of 2351 where the water is pretty high. Normal height vehicles would probably stall out - one Challenger was still stuck there.

2351 is still a River, and had a few boats running on it.

One good bot of news is Central Texas BBQ was open, and also that Mexican restaurant near it.

GCP,

My wife and I live in Eastwood on Polk. No flooding on Polk. There is actually a bit of traffic on the street. We didn't lose power but for 30 seconds on Saturday night. There are a couple of roads with high water in the area but nothing rctensive. Addotionally, it appears no homes are flooded on the portions of Lockwood, polk, and telephone that I could see.

My parents are in the sugar mill area of sugar land a few miles from evac zones, my mom is starting to get nervous, should she be worried?

Thanks a lot for the response, veek! Makes me feel a lot better!

South of 518 and west of 288.

When did this pop up? Haven't seen it? There's not really a way out around this area.

---

Within the last 30-45 min.

That's where I live. Water in streets but not in homes - at least in my area.

Parents are going to evacuate lakes on Eldridge and try to get to us (kirkwood/Briar Forrest) may take them a while to get around

Here's the Brazos river level predictions at Richmond:

I've been looking at flood maps for the Brazos. Can someone explain to me how the base flood elevation on the map relates to the elevation on the chart above? Thanks.

LG is flooding. 71 is for sure closed there and as of earlier this morning 77 was closed as well. I think you could possibly skirt it and get back on 77 N if you really wanted to though.

El Rey's open light was a lie.


Open restaurants:

Parents are evacuating Lakes on Eldridge and want to come to Austin or Dallas. Can anyone confirm that there is a way out of the city?

Hammerly and gessner are okay. The Kroger was supposed to be open yesterday. No idea about today. The kenpwood HEB was opening until 3 if their employees could make it.

ABC giving advised routes for sienna to get out.

Thanks. Worried about my church building, and no one from the parish has been able to get there to check.

Anyone in Sienna need a place to go?

I'm not an expert by any means, but what I've learned from watching that same graph for my area (Spring Creek), is that the flood level is measured from some point...not sure if it's the creek bed or what. But it's not representative of the TOTAL elevation. For example, our graph shows the creek has reached 110 feet. But, we know from other graphs that the TOTAL elevation at that point is about 142 feet. And my neighborhood is at a total of 169 feet. Does that kind of make sense?

Are you in Southern Trails?

My parents are currently stuck in Lakement off westpark and mason. They said all the roads are around are flooded and they can really leave

If you look at the bottom of those graphs it says 0 datum 27 feet or whatever. That means that 0 on this scale is 27 feet above sea level. Then the river goes up from there.

If she is in new Pearland just east of 288 around 518 she should be fine. Some neighborhoods have limited access at times during heavy rains. We got onto 288 from CR 59 and got off at Bellfort to sneak onto 610.

Yes



It hasn't changed much since this.

South of 518 and west of 288.

From what I can tell with my friends who live close by her is that everything is okay for the most part. Seems like the majority of the neighborhoods are seeing lots of street flooding but minimal house flooding. I guess that's a positive.
