I've gotten 8-1/2" at my house in Deer Park in two days.

Can anyone update the rainfall amounts in the San Antonio/New Braunfels area?

My neighborhood looks the same in seabrook.
Just a FYI for everyone, 225 is flooded between the beltway and 610, so traffic is diverted to the feeder took me about 30min to get through it.

Not all of it. I drove through some high water on Pearland Pkwy to get to Chili's but no worries, I was in my truck.

The water is still up to our front porch right now and to the ledge of the garage but luckily it stopped raining.



There is a DOUBLE rott board under the fence on this side so it is about 12" right here.

Yup. And I meant "down", not "done". Lyric fail...

Had some street flooding but the new house was "High And Dry" all day long.
