Jeff was so thoughtful last night to ask how folks watching on Periscope were doing while he was waiting for the back of the eyewall to hit.

Sorry to hear about your loss. Me and family will definitely be praying for y'all. Plus, we'll be donating to local relief efforts.

I know none of this helps you time now but at least you and your loved ones are safe.

Hope everyone makes it through this thing okay. Any idea how much rain Houston is expecting over the next few days?

Is CNN broadcasting yet with Anderson Cooper on the ground to blast Trumps response yet?

I'm probably the longest lurker in history since I found this board the night Ryan Perrilloux flipped his commitment. My family and I just moved to Spring/The Falls and this thread has been extremely helpful. We had no real clue what was going to happen.

You're safe and your family is safe. You made a good choice. Don't forget that.

It's gonna suck for the short term. But remember your choice to protect your family. You'll get through this.

Looking like a ton of rain for them tonight if that band fills in.

I quoted your post to my wife when I read it.
Have you been tracking Harvey? Is there a website that is tracking Harvey for us to see it's path?

Oddly, the updates have kind of gone by the wayside... Doesn't feel like anyone is paying attention to where its going now, moreso worried about the current conditions and where the bands are lining up.

I'm worried about where it's going because I'm currently sitting in between the two bands. A shift in either directions puts us in the line of fire


Yup, what i've been saying all day. Houston has been perfectly placed in between the main convection of the storm and the outer feeder band.

As it starts to shift back E like it is now, the main convection is slowly going to creep into Houston and thats when the flooding will occur.

Yep. I'm sitting in sienna plantation (between Sugarland and Pearland on HWY 6) just basically waiting for it to hit the fan. Brand New to the area and have no idea what to expect.

Everything that I've researched says we can handle another 10-12" in the next 24hrs. Anything after that is a crap shoot.

Kinda freaking me out. Had a tornado come through and damage about 50 houses last night a mile from my place.

And the hits just keep coming, In Laws had big place on Copano Bay they just knew would survive a large storm including a new metel shop/boat barn that was engineered and built for 150+ winds last year, we just found out it's all gone. They didn't take anything out and the boat in the shop is gone, only concrete foundations left.

So sorry! Please if there is anything you need don't hesitate to let us know. I imagine there are plenty of us that are ready to head that way when it's safe to help you guys out.
