Overall it seems we have done better than most. At least on the SW side. Are there any donation areas or shelters in Spring Branch?

Trying to reunite mom, flew to DFW tonight, with 10 month old and dad in Spring Branch. Dad is trying to head north to meet us - is that doable? Any routes from Spring Branch to north of Conroe?
Not sure about Conroe, but making it to hwy6 might be possible based on what posters have said.
Anyone know any places in SB to take or drop off clothing donations?
I was wondering as well. Looked online but didn't see any. Not sure if that is up to date though.
I'm wondering the exact route of the uncontrolled water that will soon be coming out the Addicks spillway. I'm curious how it might affect SB residents close to BW8.

Sorry, don't know if that will work posting from mobile.

We're at Clay and Gessner and I'm not too worried about this water.
What gets me nervous is if that dam fails. No indication that that is the case but that's me thinking worst case scenario and that could affect us and a lot folks in SB.

A dam failure would be catastrophic for a huge number of folks. If this was a real concern, they would've called for evacuations by now. I wouldn't worry about it.
We are dry here in Spring Shadows.
Our office is on Brittmoore between West Little York and Tanner, and no telling how bad it will be with the reservoir drainage.

Binglehood stayed relatively dry. A handful of home flooded Saturday night/Sunday morning. Same ones that flooded the past couple years it seems. We definitely got blessed
Any of yall heard of local donation drop off points or shelters?
Just made the trip.
290 to 6 to I10 same route on my way back out.
Only had to cross moderately high water 1x on 290. No go for a smaller vehicle. Truck was easy.

Drivetexas shows flooding on highway 6 all across I-10 intersection? Does that not exist? You can cross highway 6 on I-10?
Feeder was under in spots but the main lanes were passable.
Gessner Kroger is letting about ten people in at a time. Waited about half an hour in line outside.
This is what I posted on another thread about traveling to CS

Just made it onto 6. 290 had people turning around past hwy 6 and heading back east to the hwy 6 exit. The frontage road was blocked at huffmeister but people are going through barrels. Watch out for emergency vehicles using the left lane to head back east. Take it slow or hold off.

Kempwood HEB was a mad house. Wife couldn't find a parking spot and said F it.
She headed to the Super H Mart and made it pretty easy

Any power outages for anyone in SB?
We were without power the majority of Saturday. I live right behind IKEA. No problems since.
I'm hearing a rumor that the Academy at Bunker Hill was looted and guns were stolen. HPD getting reports that doors are being kicked in throughout SB and Memorial.
Be safe and diligent.

I hadn't heard that. Thanks for the info.
Nothing on our next door page but I'll be checking.

My area of Binglewood had drainage work done the past month that saved my ass. Without it, my house would have been swimming,Charlie Kelley said:

What's the gas situation in the area? We both had full tanks when the storm ht so we are doing okay, but by the end of the weekend we'll need to fill up.
Noticed that most places on Gessner didn't have any tonight while driving past, but didn't know if they have been out all day. It was really my first time to start looking.
Thanks.

I haven't had any trouble finding gas yet, but I've seen some stations with bags over the pumps. I used the FM food mart at antoine and westview, and I also used the Shell station just east of BIngle on the I10 feeder, both today.

Thanks, y'all!
