No additional strengthening is forecast.

I have an aunt and uncle that just left that area as well. They were headed to 59 south to find a way out. Haven't heard any updates recently though.

Key Messages:
1. Ongoing catastrophic and life-threatening flooding will continue
across southeastern Texas. Additional rainfall accumulations of 15
to 25 inches are expected across the upper Texas coast, with
isolated storm totals as high as 50 inches. Please heed the advice
of local officials. Do not attempt to travel if you are in a safe
place, and do not drive into flooded roadways. Refer to products
from your local National Weather Service office and the NOAA Weather
Prediction Center for more information on the flooding hazard. A
summary of rainfall totals compiled by the Weather Prediction Center
can be found at: www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/discussions/nfdscc1.html
2. The flood threat is spreading farther east into Louisiana.
Additional rainfall amounts of 15 to 25 inches are expected in
southwestern Louisiana, with rainfall amounts of 5 to 15 inches
expected in south-central Louisiana and 5 to 10 inches in
southeastern Louisiana. Please heed the advice of local officials
and refer to products from your local National Weather Service
office and the NOAA Weather Prediction Center for more information
on the flooding hazard in these areas.
From NWS 4PM Discussion.

Looks to me like that mess around lake arther is gonna continue north instead of coming to laffy.
That bottom part seems to be working its way east, but the stuff over Lake Arthur doesn't seem to be moving anytime soon.

Any news on the flooding in Cypresswood (Spring) area?
249 is open, but Louetta, Cypresswood intersections are underwater
the Kroger at Cypresswood is 2-3 feet underwater
Im near Cy-Creek HS on the west side of 249 and the water has stayed over the sidewalk and slowly rising since Saturday
Water has nowhere to go since Spring Creek, Cypress Creek and Addicks watersheds are in effect merged right now

KPRC interviewing some folks from LA doing rescues. Pretty uplifting segment all things considered.

Worse for which part of Louisiana? Mostly southwest LA and New Orleans area?
Posted on 8/28/17 at 4:08 pm to slackster
Slackster are you in Houston ?

Yes.
The numbers for SWLa are incredible though. Serious flooding if those numbers somehow verify.

any word on water levels around Memorial City Mall, North of I-10?

Yeah, it is truly unfathomable.

I am north if I -10 but a little east of that. Know some flooded closer to memorial mall sat night but closer to 610 it's pretty good
