Worried about flooding...maybe.
IIRC some of the homes on there flooded in 2016. As far as their safety is concerned...they should be fine imho.

I’m always amazed by weathermen


Hyped up weather even that gets a 10 page thread about its possibility always turns out to be nothing

When shite actually hits the fan it always comes with no real warning

Especially with snow.

Dont worry. I live about 2.5 miles from there and despite more water on my property than I've ever seen, including Katrina, Gustav and 2016, there isn't wind damage.

Apparently we've gotten 16 inches since about 2pm. I've actually found a couple leaks in my roof as a result. All where those pvc pipes protrude from the roof.

Fox Branch Estates on 1085, by I-12
I live just north of you along 1085. I have never seen this much rain here in 15 years. I have about 2.5 feet of standing water in my back yard. I'm lucky that the folks who built this home broke some HOA rules and put extra fill under the slab.

And its still fricking raining.

River Ridge is lit right now. Last report I saw before I put the kid to bed was “we are not expecting any severe weather, just isolated thunderstorms”. Whoops

Im telling you their ability to hype up nothing, then completely whiff in actual severe situations is unreal

Sounds like bombs going off. It’s going down like the 4th of July right now.

Margret Orr just said there are major rescues going on in the Madisonville area. Sounds really really bad.

I mean I'm not a global warming skeptic or anything, I do believe that human action (burning fossil fuels and other shite) does contribute to the warming of the planet, but holy shite if you are going to legislate trillions of dollars in economic impact based on computer models that assume whats going to happen if the earth warms one or two fricking degrees. If your model doesn't catch something like this storm an hour before it happens, how the frick are you going to convince people that your models that go decades beyond are accurate.
