Much of southwest Louisiana is now under threat of major flooding as well. Heaviest rain is over that area at the moment.

Thank God you raised those gas prices because you're not going to be open for a while more than likely.

Maybe you can increase prices quite a bit when you open to catch up even more.

Katrina killed more than Twelve hundred people and those are things that cannot be replaced.

Property damage is just that, property damage and can be fixed and will be replaced and Texans will rise above that.

Katrina was also such a complete mindfrick thanks to inept and incompetent political leadership at all levels dealing with it like Blanco and Nagin. Thankfully that's not happening here in Texas.

I'm on Woodhead St a block south of US 59. Water is flooding the neighborhood streets towards Bissonet like the tax day flood last year, but not quite as bad yet, and saw some big oak tree limbs down in the street. Drainage seems to be good when the rain breaks but water was coming up out of the storm drains during the heavy stuff.

The lights probably are on because the facility has a generator.


Would power specific outlets, not entire facility, and not overhead lights in all likelihood.

Buddy in south lake Charles said it's beginning to get bad with rainfall. Looking at radar there could be problems there soon also. Terrible situation all along the coast

Gotcha .. husband had that as well a few years ago. He's a farmer and it was quite hard for the I think 6 weeks of no lifting. Still, God speed to them and all of Texas.

LOL nice time for you to be a dickhead after many of us sustained a ton in losses, honestly I really dont care bc im well insured but so nice of you to be a complete jerkoff during this time. You're clearly not a businessman of any sorts, it was a smart move, we're probably going to be offline for a couple more days, so it worked out great for me.

It's worse than the worst case scenario right now. Estimates currently are the monetary damage will exceed that of Katrina, which is staggering.





Let's hope the loss of life wont be as bad.. Monetarily, i guess it makes sense that this'd be worse than Katrina since Houston is multiple times bigger than NOLA.

You're expecting about 1300+ people killed?

Seems like the Harris County flood warning system is down again.
