    I live on the second floor of an apartment, so this whole thing really isn't bothering me too much personally.

    But it must be misery for you home owners, I could only imagine the helpless feeling watching the water level creep up.

    Be careful. Call the non-emergency police number if you need to get out. 911 IF you must. Lot of rescues going on, so it may be awhile. Best thing is just hang out if you can and are safe.

    I think he was trying to figure out how he could get to Dickinson to help the old folks home. But agree w' your advice.
    This whole thing is horrific.

    No I'm fine, I was thinking about heading down towards the nursing home but need a flat bottom or jet skis. Hopeless feeling. Anyone in clear lake have the equipment, I'll provide some man power it's an emergency

    About an hour ago the rain finally let up in la Porte. The water is almost all in the drain. Amazing it was less than a foot from my front door. Hard to be happy when it seems 9 out of 10 neighbors are devasted.

    I really feel for those in Pearland that are stuck. My dad and I are working on trying to grab some relatives from there in a John boat but can't get it to start.

    It feels weird that I'm relieved the water went down but there is still more coming. I feel so bad for you that feel trapped, I was there a few hours ago and it's an awful feeling

    Is that a real photo - looks photoshopped with the dry sweaters on water?

    It's about to lose its shape and sit over us.

    I'm afraid even worse is yet to come.
