There was a recent new BYc member that mentioned the neighborhood she was in...it's in fort bend and was a mandatory evacuation zone yesterday. I wish I could get on my computer..I'd be able to find her profile quick. Argh

I figured out what I will wear if I can squeeze into it if they need to helicopter me out....my wedding dress. I'd gotta be the only netball dressed in that so I'd be easy to spot on the news. I feel your pain lilapot. If I wasn't already nuts I'd be officially nuts now

If you have to evacuate, which I hope you don't I will watch out for you on the news. See, you haven't lost the ability to make a joke during the storm.

Don't pay any attention to the mud on my legs when they lift me out though.

I just double checked my shop vac....it better ducked the water up quick enough. I think we are going to continue to be extremely lucky about not getting water indoors...I sure hope so.

Kiki, Ive seen forecast of heavy rain for your area today. Levees/dams around your are under immense pressure. Controlled water releases continue from upstream to let off the pressure, with some dams having to try to slowly increase their release volumes. Rivers have still not crested, bayous going down then back up. Currents are swift, strong, turbulent.

Good news is that many many rescuers are about. If you think you can't take another 5 inches of water there, I'd consider flagging down rescuers now. I think 5 inches is very conservative. Seriously. In any case, be packed and ready to move. It's not over, honey. Please stay safe and aware.

DW was just on FB & saw where farmers are driving their cows through town to higher ground.
