[butters]

Everyone except one of my kith and kin has checked in and is safe.

Some without water, some who just got electric back, some who seem to be taking waking up in foot deep water way too well, and will not leave, but they are safe.

The missing one, and their mum are in a heavily flood rural area, so hopefully are in shelters. They do have a boat, but I am not sure what shape momma is in.

This is also the first time I have really appreciated the Texas Biker Lawyer's current residence's swimming pool.

hope you get to hear from them shortly, noor, and that all are well.

All kith and kin finally accounted for!

Last group were able to check in this morning.
They had to be rescued twice!
First time by air boat!
The family, including pets are safe.
House was full of water when they were rescued.
Entire area flooded.

I'm glad you finally heard from them.

That was one of the weird things about this storm and flooding, finding safe harbor was difficult.

Water, water, everywhere...

Thank goodness for bottled water.

This is the latest I have heard re: Beaumont. First, there was no water, then about 30% water of grey water so toilet flushing, no showers, when water pressure comez back boil water if using. Friends are still drinking bottled water, but this is not that abnormal for summer.

The Neches river is still at flood stage, and Sour Lake is still basically underwater so if the Pine Island Bayou floods more not sure it matters all that much.

About 12 hrs ago.

I am finding this incredibly shocking, these are not flood zones, or storm surge areas.
