Flood zones
PostPosted: Tue May 11, 2004 2:11 pm
Hey everyone--
There is a serious, serious thunderstorm/hurricane warning in effect for Southeast Texas (in and around Houston) tonight. The storm is the worst I have ever seen, and may even be up there with Allison a few years back. The rain is nearly horizontal, trees are bent backwards, and the street is quickly beginning to flood simply because the water is pouring down faster than the drains can drain.
My prayer request is for everyone in this area. My own family is safe enough--our house is built so high a car in the street needs to be completely covered with water before it even reaches the sidewalk leading to our house from the driveway. But I know of other areas that are not this well--particularly like around Turbocat's neighborhood. Please pray for them and their safety. Also for people like my father who will have to drive home tonight and face more storms and dangerous weather. Also, if the power goes out, well no more Ash for a while.
Thanks all
