Rain gauge in Friendswood at Mary's Creek & Winding Road has confirmed that Harvey has officially dropped more rainfall than any tropical system in the CONUS in recorded history - 49.20" and rising. The previous record for rainfall in a given location from a tropical system was 48".

If anyone has the need and has the ability to come pick it up, I've got a generator for free loan. If I can dig up the parts, I've also got a portable A/C unit also for free loan. I'm in Clear Lake, Bay Forest subdivision.

No problems during the storm and now we lose power.

Where?

My wife took a load of stuff too. Seems like some of the shelters are being inundated with donations, good problem to have.

Clear Brook High school is also opening as a shelter

Agree, my husband had to wait in a long line of cars bringing donations. Love our community.

Does anyone know of a place that needs volunteers in the Kemah/LC area? Preferably a place that our 10 yr old could help as well.

You got power restored yet? Need anything?

Power still out but we're good. Thanks for asking.

Send contact info to: volunteers@leaguecitytx.gov

Does anyone know where to get gas in League City? I know of a Coast Guardsman that needs gas to get to work tomorrow and can't find it anywhere.

ill be driving in tonight. this is pretty much my first foray in to friendswood and i dont know much about the area as ive lived down on the coast for ages. will i be able to get in to sunmeadow neighborhood? what roads are passable? i reckon ill be getting in to twon around 0500-0600. TIA for the info

That's where I was afraid you were headed. Only way in that I know of is via 528 in the section I referenced earlier as closed. Again, this is just based on looking at online mapping resources - I have no first hand knowledge of it and haven't heard of anyone confirming or refuting the closure. I hope it is open for you.

I'd recommend not driving at night down here. Lots of water that seems passably but isn't.

Yep - I agree with that as well. But I also know he wants to get back to his family ASAP...understandably.

Take care, third coast. Your family needs you home SAFE.

2351 is crazy swamped.

Sunset isn't passable all the way through, nor is 518. Both are cut by creek flooding.

You might be best if you can navigate through Pearland to Hwy 6 through Manvel and then come up through Alvin.

Lots of Friendswood is still grossly underwater.

Woke up to no rain in Tuscan Lakes. Can't wait to get back to our house. Is 528 and Bay area passable?

NICU, any idea if the high school is accessible on the back side from 35, 2351, Baker Rd and Falling Leaf? I'm thinking Baker is likely impassable at Coward's Creek but looking for confirmation.

The best way into Friendswood is via the back side coming up 2351 from Alvin. Or 518 was pretty clear yesterday through pearland and you can make it all the way to 2351 (west of 518 is good east is definitely no bueno). Sunset is a big question, it was not possible to drive down yesterday. Hopefully the waters subside today so you can reach your home in Sun Meadow.

We will be driving around today as I need to get to League City for work. Feel free to contact me and will help you navigate as best we can. 281-797-1465.

Anyone know how 518 is looking today between Friendswood and League City? Need to get a vehicle there for a coworker to use.

Is 528 drivable north and south of Moore road intersection?
