111' on the measured peak. I'm on the flint ridge side and by forest gate park it was significantly over flint ridge. Some houses in my neighborhood were within 2' of flooding. Very thankful that it's going down.
So no houses along Flintridge took in water? If not, that's wonderful! I'm trying to collect as much info as I can so that we will have point of references in the future.
I saw on FB some houses in Trace Creek had water in their house. I'm sure there had to be other neighborhoods along Flintridge that had flooding issues.

I do not know about Flintridge other than yesterday they were advised to leave if they were south of flintridge...and I am. They are just some lower lying areas in there aside from TLTR; some really low income level housing that seems to not be able to recover and repair.

I can confirm this. Just saw the entrance ramps blocked by State Troopers myself.

Is Woodlands Parkway flooded there, too? I work right near that intersection, and I'm trying to figure out where the water would be coming from (if it's closed due to water).

I think they closed it there to help prevent people from running into Spring Creek.

So they are trying to keep people from traveling further down 45? If so that makes sense...you can turn around at the Pkwy.

Sorry I've been off for a bit. The local MUD came in and pumped out about two feet of water from the Meadows this am according to my neighbor's dad who lives there. Houses would've flooded if not for that.
Rest of the area is drivable as of 4pm. Still steady raining, but draining well. I guess it depends on how long spring Creek stays where it is. We aren't out of the woods yet.

Woodlands Pkwy was high and dry from at least I45 to Grogan's Mill. That is the only section I drove this evening.

Looks like my parents are 2in from having water in the house. I really hope the water stops! They are in spring trails.

My grandma is there and not spry. Don't think walkers are good in flood water.

Has anyone heard if 45 is closed where the San Jac crosses?

This website shows it is, but I haven't heard that yet.

Was hoping to make it into work tomorrow (336 and Frazier).

Thanks. Didn't realize you could click on each location and get more information on the actual closure.

The water is receding in spring trails. Looks like my folks got lucky no water in the house, just the garage.

First drowning that I know of up here happened last night at the Spring Trails entrance.


I read that. Heartbreaking. A 70 year old man.

Anyone in The Woodlands need help? My wife and I are able to transport anyone from water areas to shelters or bring in supplies for any boats (don't have a boat but an F-150). We're on 1488 so we can't get to 45 and have heard 2978/1488 is flooded too.
