I've saved for this house for 3 years and I'm 100 yards from Cypress Creek
I relate to that more than you can know.
Saved and eventually bought a house off about the same distance off a bayou here in BR. This was late July of last year...
Good luck man and get your valuable shite as high as you can just in case.

I guess God just politely said "pass" when it came down to saving all those other people who have died from hurricanes and other natural disasters. What a sweet gig

Klark do you have flood insurance? Even if you do if water gets too close get every pot and tall cup/glass that you can and put the feet of your furniture in them. It worked for some last year here in my area in La that flooded.
Pick up the computer off of the floor if you have a hard drive for a desktop and pick up what you can out of closets .. throw it in trash bags on top shelves of closets and on beds.
Don't know if any of that helps but maybe? I had one friend who when they saw water rising, they started cutting scrap lumber into blocks and were able to elevated all of their furniture which at least helped with not having to replace everything.
Good luck guys.

Sorry man. Mine flooded a year ago. I feel your pain ... although I know that doesn't help much.

Can only imagine what memorial will look like if this lasts another hour or two.

And it keeps on coming.
Do I detect an ever so slight movement to the north?

I can't speak for Houston proper, but here in Clear Lake we've had light rain pretty much all day spare some heavy stuff this morning. All total about 4 inches since midnight.
Posted on 8/26/17 at 9:46 pm to Lsut81
Meyerland has had 5 inches since 8pm
Posted on 8/26/17 at 9:57 pm to Lsut81
Is anyone still checking the new model runs? Official forecast doesn't include this but if this trend continues, the Louisiana meteorologists will begin to raise eyebrows.

They're saying the same on stormcastforums.com. Making me a wee nervous.
