It really sucks when where you live is the headline on CNN !  The only good thing is I haven't seen any reports of casualties  and let hope there isn't any.

Good evening gentlemen. I live in Spring a northern suburb of Houston close to the airport. It has been raining on and off since late afternoon yesterday. It is actually thundering as I write this. Earlier today I got in the car to go check the places that normally flood around here and the water was very high but there was still room for more. In brief, so far all fine in Houston. I have been in touch with family in both Austin and San Antonio and all OK there so far also. So I suspect Youzguyz may not be riding today, but he should be fine. I do not know if we have any Savages in the Corpus Christi area, if we do we need to be praying for them. I will update this tomorrow if the electricity doesn't go out. Ya'll take care now.

Hello everyone. It is about 2 pm central time and we continue to have more rain. My street is flooded with about 2 feet of water but still dry inside the house. Many other parts of Houston have been affected much more than my part of town. Prior to street flooding I went with my wife to take a look around. I will get some of her pictures and post them.

This is the barn at a small horse riding place about a mile and a half from my house. The picture was taken yesterday around noon or so.

24 hours ... 8 ft. rise in water level ... not good.

Sero, that really is what it looks like. I am saying my prayers for the people of Houston. We really are taking a heck of a beating. It is so weird, in the last hurricane we went through the hours of the wind pounding that accompanied the rain. And the wind really makes you understand the danger. But this is just rain, incessant rain, but just rain. Difficult to believe it can cause so much damage.

Wow, just am amazing amount of rain...
I bet gas prices rise now too
