We just evacuated Kingsland / Baker area...

I10 west was a no go a few hours ago. Couldnt get past Katy Mills... evidentally because I10 at Peterson was closed.

Frontage roads north of 10 across from Katy Mills were flooded with stranded cars.
So how did you end up getting out?

Did this get answered?

Had anyone driven from San Antonio area back to Houston (heights area) yet? I've got to get back as soon as possible. Any closures, detours, etc.?
I do not think that is possible at this time, and given the rain we are currently getting, It would be foolish of you to try. If you are trying to get to somebody who needs immediate help, you should call the emergency response lines. If you are not coming back for that reason, you should stay where you are.

On drivetexas.org, 290 looks to be flooded in between 6 and 99. Can anyone confirm or deny? I may and try to leave from city center area down beltway 8 north and onto 290 to Austin

Damn. Just shared these on my FB for our friends further back in Kingwood. We're in Oakhurst, and luckily, we're doing fine.

Glad it is... I'll take it down. I heard Dickenson was bad so that was the first result.

From what I've seen online, it seems like it's only flooded on the inbound/eastbound side. I think 290 is OK outbound on the main lanes.

Still good. Just drove by Kaufman. About 6" of standing water at NF/AB intersection. Despite Spring Creek nearing record high, water around here seems to be still draining well.
My neighbors parents live in the Meadows and there was apparently a good amount of water there, but the houses were ok. South of Rayford is flooded as you get closer to the creek.

It's still just coming down ITL. This is insane. It's been going like this for probably 8 or 9 hours.

We went on a walk to check out the neighborhood and ran across a gas leak on a neighboring street. I called Centerpoint to report it and the service provider who answered asked how our neighborhood was fairing and I told her we were doing well.

At that point she nearly broke down on the phone. Apparently, the folks at Centerpoint answering the phones have been trapped at work for three days now answering calls from often panicked or angry customers. This poor woman has no idea how her own home is fairing and is separated from her family. She's fortunate that Centerpoint's offices are connected to a nearby hotel where she can get some food and a place to sleep but she doesn't think she'll be able to leave work until Thursday. There's a lot of people thanking first responders for their service right now, and rightly so, but let's not forget the folks who are keeping our infrastructure working as well.

Thanks so much 3rdGenAg05. Guess I should make sure I exchange numbers with my neighbors for the future.

Appreciate it.

Stay Safe.

There's been a lot of fake stuff out there. Hard to imagine some of these images being real, so it's understandable.

Wow, people like that easily get lost in the shuffle, but are playing an important role.

For all you Houston folks, you're certainly in my T&P's as well. I lived near the med center and then Sugar Land for 9 years. Heartbreaking to see all of this.

Not sure specifically to Harmony, but some homes in Benders Landing have flooded, especially along the creek. Most are in good shape.

Not super close to you but I'm told the Lone Star College off of West/Barker cypress is housing people. Berry Center is taking people for food/shelter/showers but no beds apparently. Lastly copperfield church at highway 6/west is also taking families in.
Thanks!

funny you say that. i realized today when i was trying to find out what was going on at my complex that i have no numbers of neighbors to call. i guess it's kind of a symbol of the times these days, when i was a kid we had numbers for every house on the street.

Doing ok so far. Been watching the pins in front of Harmony Creek rise all day though. Spring Trails not doing so hot though. Areas over there flooding.

Benders Landing Estates resident here. BL and BLE are in good shape with exception of lots along the southwest part that have backyards that slope down to the creek. Still have power but ATT been out for 2 days for phone/internet. Drove up to Walmart on 99 this morning and looked good around that area and HEb. Most of Harmony should be fine with exception of any houses really close to spring creek. Some flooding now in parts of Spring Trails per a friend. We're on an island now as 99 closed going both ways and Rayford flooded in front of Imperial Oaks.
