Okay from floods in Texas

I'm okay as south side of Houston had a lower amount of rains. Downtown was an entirely different story as you likely saw on the news. I had a friend get stranded downtown as the Rockets-Warriors playoff game ended. The arena made people stY after the game and it was a very smart call.

I thought it might be good for the other Texas based folks to report in if they are okay. Bad flooding in central Texas close to town of Wimberley. Praying for missing people.

Thanks for letting us know. Glad to hear you're OK.

Oh man, we've had multiple seasons of extreme rain/flooding over the last couple decades. It's amazing how much damage water can do in a very short time. Once the margin in the water control systems are overwhelmed, the SHTF real fast... Thoughts and prayers to you and yours.

Ft Worth and Gainesville TX havent had any flooding that I could see.
There were some flash floods however, even this morning the frontage road at exit 499 on I 35 was partially flooded, but cleared quickly.
