More than I've gotten. Not a sprinkle here.

Wish we could get some rain. It's the driest here than it's been all year. Over 3 weeks without any, plus temps in the 90's every day.

Parked right on top of us, as usual. 28" of rain so far with 70 lightning strikes per minute. Pretty impressive.

I love the Gulf coast for the superb fishing. But I wouldn't want to live there. The Gulf looks like a corner pocket and every billiard ball of hell goes right in.

I just checked KHOU, Houston tv. Interstate 10 is closed between Beaumont and Houston. A hospital is being evacuated right now.
Good God what a mess.

Looks like it just set up over Houston and camped out. Relatives living a hundred miles north have not gotten any appreciable rain.

Nary a drop here either.

I don't even think Houston proper has had that many issues. It's the East side of the twist that gets the most rain.

If I'd move up just a little north east I might get a shower out of it.

That’s seems to be right. Heavy rain is hit and miss. If it hits you , it’s real heavy other wise it’s just been a good soaking rain for me.

I was just watching KHOU. Winnie and Beaumont have gotten 17.1 inches of rain in the past 6 hours. The land there is so flat, there is nowhere for the water to go.
The water is running 12 inches deep over Interstate 10, east of Winnie. This is a disaster just localized to the area 40 miles east of Houston.

She ain't done yet. You boys MIGHT hear more about it when 17% of the nation's refining capabilities (Port Arthur/Beaumont) get swamped.

I hate Houston. I avoid it like the plague.

That being said, I hope my family and friends there are safe!!!
