I live just South of Houston. Yesterday, I took my Jeep over to the Brazos river to see how high the water had gotten. It is reported to be at historic levels. The Highway Patrol would not let traffic even approach the river from miles away. The river is ten feet above flood stage putting many homes, bridges, and farm animals under water.

The National Guard has been called out but at least four army soldiers were killed yesterday at Fort Hood, which is farther upstream than Houston. Others are missing.

It is raining now with MUCH more rain to come.

You would have to see this to believe what 154,000 cubic feet per second of water can do to an area was wasn't built above it.

Holy cow ...
We had some serious rainfall the other day in parts of the country too ... streets flooded, think got into houses here and there too.
Weather is just totally nuts ...

Texas has diffidently had enough rain.

It is still raining here we have only had a break for a couple days then it comes a down pour...

So many areas are flooding it is unreal ...

Joe hope you are okay where you are...

I'm on the north side of Houston and thank god I'm ok where I'm located but others are not.. I'm ready to see the sun come out... It needs to stop raining soon or we need to start praying someone has built an ark that will hold all of us... My heart goes out to all of those that had to leave their homes...

it's a gift from the Copenhagen......... thank god there a lot raining day where i'm living now as usual......and things starting go back to the normal........

Guess Stevie-Ray knew what he was singing about!

I've noticed ol Moe has been absent the last day or so....hope he is afloat somewhere.....

hope he has a Paddle along!

hasn't really rained that much where i live... it's all north of me...

I'm just grateful, we didn't have a repeat of last
year's memorial day tornadoes.
