Anyone here likely to be impacted? Sounds like a crazy amount of rain with this one, serious flooding expected.

It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence. -
We are expecting 3+ inches of rain. There has been a run on bottle water and such and this is 150+ miles inland.
The Houston area is bracing two or more feet of rain, in addition to the storm surge. The major petro-chemical and pipeline areas have been battening all week.

yeow, take care. I just saw this graphic indicating that it's basically going to stall once it reaches landfall ...

Expecting a lot of rain here, 15-20 inches over the next 5-6 days. I'm far enough inland I don't expect the wind impact to be that bad even if the storm makes its way across the Houston metro early-to-mid next week as currently predicted. But I'm not really planning on going out of the house much for the next several days and am prepared for loss of power."Jesus said to them, 'Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.'"Comment

I appreciate the offer. My house is a good 30 feet above river/lake level and about a mile from the nearest bayou. I expect some street flooding, but my house sits about 6-7 feet above the street, so I'm not worried about that. Current worry is how to entertain four children for multiple days inside one house. Something tells me they aren't going to be starting school on Monday morning as planned.Originally posted by Redbirds Fan View Post
Power outages are the main worry here, but we have a neighbor with a generator if worse comes to worst.
I can't imagine what it's like in Port Aransas and Rockport right now. Port A is a favorite vacation spot for us. Hard to the imagine the destruction there. Hopefully everyone is evacuated and it's just property being destroyed."Jesus said to them, 'Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.'"Comment

We had an inch of rain here yesterday, and about 5 inches so far today. Most of that fell overnight, and we had a break this morning, but there's another heavy rain band on its way through now. So far the bayous are handling everything, but it can't keep doing that for multiple days."Jesus said to them, 'Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.'"Comment

We only have about an inch so far, but the forecast is for 3"-6" more before the storm dies. One county south is where it starts getting bad. The direction of the storm track will tell a lot. Most maps show a northward track, between us and Houston. However, there is a large high pressure dome that could push it back out to sea, which would be really bad. At sea it can reintensify.

The rain picked up again at sundown last night and during the night it was raining hard pretty much up until morning. Just light rain now. We got an additional 7-8" overnight, for a total of about 12-13 inches so far over the last 36 hours. There is no flooding at my house but a lot of people are in bad shape. Downtown and south Houston have gotten 15-30 inches.
Power is still on at my house. I don't know if that will continue. More rain is expected today, another 5-10 inches, and more rain every day for the foreseeable future."Jesus said to them, 'Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.'"Comment
