Completely unnecessary.

I'm going to assume that you are just stressed out and are not as big of a dick as your post makes you seem. If you are this stressed out and affected by the storm, maybe you should get off the internet messageboard and go deal with your "actual shite".

TWC says Houston has had almost 12" with a predicted 18-24" to come. Pretty bad.

Looks like an average of about 16 inches city wide so far.

Would be great if this thing would shift and put Houston into the area of less convection that is SW

The last time we saw river gauges like this was the August flooding in LA.

Blowing through record levels.

RDC or Bay, I think those are the two resident experts on here...

How are the models lining up for today? I know I saw the prediction this thing will get back in the gulf before moving NE again, but are you seeing training predicted for today like you were last night before all hell broke loose?

That's nuts

Yeah he was mentioning Katrina type situations and people trapped in attics trying to break rooves. This was about 4:30-5:00am. It's not gotten any better.

20 inches here since 2215 last night. Rain eased up for now and where I am is draining well. I must say we are very fortunate at least where I am, I don't see any houses with water at their doorsteps on my block.

Not as consistent, but still incredibly bad for Houston.

12" in some spots over the next 18 hours, and that's bad, but it has been worse in most of Houston.

I had 23" of rain in less than 24 hours at my house a couple years ago. I knew it was coming, they knew this was coming. It sucks, and I think you people may actually make our flood look tame. Be smart. My boat saved lives.
