That’s a risk some don’t mind taking to have an $850k home along the river
But it’s bullshite because it didn’t flood like it did because of the natural rising of the lake.

The engineers purposely opened the Conroe dam and flooded Kingwood downstream so that the houses on Lake Conroe wouldn’t flood.

That’s what everyone in Kingwood is pissed about and they are suing from what I understand.

The water was going to go downstream one way or the other. Either by a controlled opening, or the dam failing. Gravity is a bitch.
