UPDATE: Just got word that mom and dad are safe. They are at a staging area in Denham. Thank you so much to Vetteguy, Wickowick, RedFish2010 and Wick's friend. I can't tell you how much we appreciate everything you did. Finally a sigh of relief out here.

My parents are stuck in rising water in Denham and we are trying to get them evacuated. They are off Pete's Hwy in the neighborhood behind Walmart

UPDATE: Rescue will be to them in 20 - 30 minutes!!

Redfish: Please do not try to launch.

Wick: Please let me know y'all are seeing this and are not launching. I want to make sure that everyone stays safe.

I think wick is trying to find out what it would take to get there and up to their house, raised truck, boat, etc., if you have any idea?
