Default Texas getting Pelted with rain

Texas is getting pelted and here in KY were running out of water. Sure hope you guys down there will come out of it ok.

I'm pulling the cruiser tomorrow because the water is getting so low. Probably put the runabout in because it drafts less water

Tides up 2’ or less in clear lake, nothing serious. East Houston is having some issues

20' of flood water on the lower San Jacinto River, a string of barges got loose and 2 are stuck under the I-10 bridge. I-10 closed until further notice. Definitely Stevie Ray Vaughn weather. The Golden Triangle got hammered worse than Harvey I'm hearing.


This was the last piece of equipment we were able to get out, the right of way we are on was dry 2 and a half hours before this pic was taken, now under about 10' of rushing water.

30 years seeing this river flood and none of us have seen it rise as fast as it did. Most of the heavy rain fell within 20 miles and it was more like a flash flood. We had to leave 3 pickups behind.
