Most of the models initially had the storm moving into corpus then flowing east across Louisiana. The Houston stall didn't develop until later.

Is this likely the case every night while this storm is upon us the next couple of days?

What parts? A decent chunk of Cinco Ranch is going to be inundated as the Addicks reservoir rises. The maps will be released shortly.

I'm trying to find these reservoir maps, but can't do it. LINK That is where you're supposed to look.


If you go to the link. The page says:
"Due to extreme weather conditions the Harris County Flood Control District is closed with the exception of essential personnel."

Great! You are right.

What is your suggestion for evacuating 6 million people in 2 days?

Harris County official says controlled releases of reservoirs tomorrow will flood homes. Water will stay in them for *two* months. Stunning.

We've known for at least 3 days that Harvey was going to sit in the same spot for a while before moving back into the gulf.

With the internet and the 24 hour news cycle, if you need a government entity to tell you to leave then you're dumb.

Listening on Zello there's some people in serious trouble right now and a massive amount of people making their way to Houston. Big group staging at Lake Charles Civic Center.

3 days was too late. Late Wednesday development with a Friday rainfall isn't enough time to evacuate a city the size of Houston.

What? I'm merely asking what your suggestion is for such an evacuation?

I live in Houston and didn't evacuate. We are in an area that has never flooded and we aren't going to flood.

Regardless, you have said you are dumb if you didn't evacuate yet you offer no solution to the problem.
