Apparently that's where both of the reservoirs meet to go into Buffalo Bayou, so that area will/is starting to back up. Just repeating what I heard on KPRC.

Yeah my family in Kelliwood Gardens was telling me about that neighborhood. Basically nothing but homes $1MM+, right?


Yeah my uncle lives in there and they took water. All the houses in there are monsters.

That one and Lakeside which is next door. Haven't heard about lakeside but I'm sure that they are in about the same shape.

A number of homes in Bayou Woods on the west side of 99 in Cinco have/had water, which are all in the $1MM range.

How close is she to Dairy-Ashford/I-10?

My office is right there, and I checked it out this morning. Almost no water at that time.
I'm hearing that status is changing. I'd appreciate any good info anyone has about that area.



Water on Buffalo Bayou is up about a foot in that time frame - to 76.3'.

Check out your office elevation here to see your base elevation. That link is just a good decent approximation, but it may give you some peace of mind.

You can check the bayou @ Dairy Ashford here.

Sorry to hear about your uncle's home. It's going to be pretty close for my family in the area, but they should be okay.

Was thinking the same. That in NOLA would be 5M easily, but we're land strapped.
On another note, New Caney, TX or a least parts of it has power back on. No water potable water yet, but good news for my peeps.
Y'all do a great job during these things, who needs TV?
