Channel 13 reporter helping to deliver a baby in NE HOUSTON.
Thanks for both of the replies. Makes sense. I believe the base flood elevation is the 100 year flood elevation. On the map at this location it is 83 ft. So if we reach the projected flood level of 59 ft, the total water level will be 59 + 27.94 = 86.94 ft. This exceeds the 100 year flood...
Wish that video didn't start with my street. Taken by my neighbor.
For whenever was asking about explosions in the heights, I believe the sounds were transformers. We heard one around 7th and Heights Blvd and our power immediately went out. Heard a few more right after and the power flickered. Still without power

The news media is trying to make themselves be the story now. It's time for them to step back a little.
Channel 2 keeping it to the news and doing a really good job on reporting the weather.
Very few reporters out looking for victims to stick mics in front of.
I agree. I normally am a 13 guy but they aren't showing any actual weather reports. Just real time rescue 911 type of crap.
I need to keep up with the weather and how to stay prepared for what's to come. Channel 2 to the rescue.
Any word on if there is a way out of the city from Lakes on Eldridge? Looks like Beltway 8 to I45 North might still be an option?
They've been the best about it the entire time. They only occasionally make me want to throw my remote at the screen.
Ok...no la grange on 77 then.
Looks like 71 to Alt 90 to Gonzales, catch 183 north and go as far away from it as you want.

Why is abc 13 doing interviews from a boat taking up 2 spots for people that could be rescued.
I agree.
Both IAH and HOU closed until further notice. Originally reported IAH would only be closed through Thursday, but that is no longer the case.

I really hope these airlines are reasonable and accommodating when it comes to refunds, credits, flight changes, etc.
Our flight to LA on Friday has been canceled.
Which airline and flight?
That's not a prediction.AstroAg17 said:
Re reading this thread and seeing all the predictions is interesting.JJxvi said:
The seven day rain totals look bad, but seem fairly meaningless when you compare to something like Allison without knowing when and where it will be worst. In Allison the torrential downpour that ****ed Houston was 1 day/night. Will we get 20 inches in 24 hours? Or 20 inches over 7 days? That's two different ball games.
damn.. parents are scheduled thurs out of IAH to denver. I was thinking worst case it we be delayed until Fri.. maybe that is best case at this point!BizAg83 said:

What airline
How accurate are these Drive Texas maps? I'm trying to scope out a path from Galveston to Port Aransas and some of these back roads seem passable.
Same, parent scheduled to fly out IAH Thursday afternoon.
I think any flights out this week is looking unlikely.

I'd assume the airports are going to be used by emergency response aircraft for the time being.

efffffff. We are supposed to be flying out of Hobby Thursday night. Problem is is I don't know if there is a path out of the city for us to get to Dallas or Austin for a different flight.
Also just went to United's website and said all flights until noon Thursday are canceled.

I know this is trivial, but have to imagine many have scratched plans for the ucla game.

Being reported that IAH and HOU closed until further notice. Initially thought they be operation by Thursday.
Hasn't this been the case for a while now? Just asking if there has been some new announcement or anything..The Wonderer said:

It was announced in the last 10-20 minutes (as of 1:10 pm). Very new. Previous announcement was IAH was closed until Thurs.The Catfish said:Hasn't this been the case for a while now? Just asking if there has been some new announcement or anything..The Wonderer said:

A couple buddies of mine are in Denver. They had a flight back to Houston on Saturday, pushed back to today and now pushed back indefinitely.
Saw a picture that looked like Hobby with planes under water.
I know SWA was very acommodating for my wife and MIL, when they recently returned to Austin, when we had the hurricane threatening earlier this week. They were offered 14 days to make changes, etc, as needed. I can't speak for the other airlines, but usually that industry is accommodating for disasters, since they are federally subsidized also.

10-4 -- I thought that's what they had said early yesterday. Appreciate the update. Parents are supposed to be flying out of IAH on Thursday.
