I'm in Southdown near the Westside park. (Pearland) Street flooding has steadily increased throughout the day. Thank God the houses in this part of the neighborhood are well above the street.

We're in League City near Kemah. Heavy rain for a while, but it's not covering the street or anything at this point. Overnight Saturday it got halfway up the yard before it started going down when the rain lightened up.
Same thing with my daughter in Dickinson. Thanks for the earlier reply. Any idea how to get out of Dickinson if they choose to? Sounds crazy, but is Galveston even an option to consider? I don't know where else they could get to.

We're in Ashford west and i feel pretty good. I walked up to the bayou and we've still got a little breathing room. Wife and newborn and we are staying. How far south of bayou are you?
We're in country village an staying put as well
Ashford Village (Briarforest @ Kirkwood) here, staying put.
I thought everyone in Dickinson was rescued yesterday. I didn't think there was anyone left.
I grew up in Southdown and I recall the streets closest to the ditch (in between Southdown and the old folk's side of Country Place) would flood, but the houses always remained dry.Big Cat `93 said:

Granted this was back in the mid-90's, but driving through there (Country Place Pkwy/Smith Ranch Rd) yesterday, the water seemed highest by the hotel/strip center.
I'm hoping it stays that way and doesn't migrate into the neighborhood.
Anyone near Barker Cypress and W. Little York? If evacuation would be needed where could one go?
I'm located at 610/290, does anyone know of an area where boat rescues are needed that would be accessible for me to tow my boat from here?
Damn. I have a friend who lives in an apartment complex off of Braeswood. Was evacuated yesterday because she took on a lot of water in her apartment. Got back today to try and salvage things. Ransacked by looters. BUT instead of stealing anything, they just threw everything up high back into the water and stole $2. Despicable. Absolutely despicable.

San Jacinto River to Lake Houston then ultimately to Galveston Bay.
That is the path it takes. It doesn't affect the downtown bayous.
Good luck taking Mason north to 99. Just outside of waterside estates south of 99 the water is waist deep. I just walked through there from waterside to the Kroger across 99.
We used to live over there, I heard it flooded in Southdown on Saturday, guess that's not true?Big Cat `93 said:

HEB will be in Dallas (North Carrollton) soon.
Copperfield people how are we all doing? Our street is slowly beginning to back up.
Looks like there was just a third release from Add!icks. Back to 104'.
So is that Lake Conroe dam opening going to be hell for Lake Houston? A friends parents are there currently, said water is rising rapidly.

We're in Kingwood and KPRC said that Kingwood Dr will be under water before long.
How are the Friendswood folks doing?
We're close to the Methodist church and it seems like there's no way in or out of the city except through Alvin.

Dickinson is under a MANDATORY EVACUATION for all citizens within the city. We are advising anyone who stays, there may be NO resources available for search and rescues as more flooding is expected from Hurricane Harvey. There is no specified route since most of Dickinson is still underwater. Rescue teams are still out and buses are arriving to City Hall in Dickinson to bus people to shelters.

So far so good in Coppercreek, but apparently Horsepen has gotten pretty high. I have one street between us and the bayou.Ragoo said:

Where you seeing about another release from Addicks?
Addicks dropped 0.40" in the past 30 minutes so unless it is an error they just released some.
Thanks veek26, I chose to just leave and not sit through the storm but its reassuring knowing that the 2nd Ward held up.
we are on wemyss bay which is also one street over from horsepen.miller0926 said:So far so good in Coppercreek, but apparently Horsepen has gotten pretty high. I have one street between us and the bayou.Ragoo said:

Neighbors in Autumn Creek said our water was going down.
Kingwood is flooding in the back along the streets closest to the lake. Roads are 2+ feet underwater.

Just heard Ben Taub is running out of food and only have enough through dinner tomorrow night.
I thought they evacuated yesterday?
Anyone know where in Cypress people can go to get dry? My family's neighborhood near Huffmeister and Cypress North Houston is full of water and stI'll rising.
They have moved stuff to the 2nd story but waters keep rising.

Just imagine how 1/6 would've played out if DC hadn't had such strict gun laws.
Two people starred his post as of the time of this signature. Those 3 people are allowed to vote in the US.

Thanks, civilized05.
No house flooding that I know of, drwong. Just streets.

Thanks for that info. Terrible to sit here 300 miles away and try to help them make decisions. I'm a pretty calm guy, but this is really frazzling me.
