Harvey needs to go away.... it is only causing more issues in Louisiana they don't need this either.. As far as the story above on Ken Storey, he received his instant Karma when he lost his job~~~ Talking about Karma biting quick... It is sad with all the hate we have in this world and all the looters,that the ones rescuing others are having to deal with...

It would be nice if this storm would just fizzle out.

A friend of mine that has not lost electric and in a upstairs condo, as of now they are seeing water covering the street not far from them.. So far they are still good... lets hope the rain stops and the paths where the water is having to be let out subsides fast...

Ohhh I'm sure this is from the dams being opened... So far it is only on the streets so hopefully it will not rise much... She has lived in Houston for a while so far has never been flooded.. So all should be good for her... My heart goes out to all of those dealing with all this it's so sad..

Moe, how far are you from all the flooding? not sure, I only saw flooding on monday, where I'm at, just West of downtown, and that was the drains couldn't handle all the water... but I'm not near any waterways, that's where the real flooding is happening.. they have also reopened 45, saying the flooding there is over

The chemicals need to be kept at a stable temperature or ka boom !they have no power so all the refrigeration units have failed!

It's in Crosby? Arcama? Not sure if that is correct spelling! Sky news is showing Richmond at the moment.
