    As Hurricane Harvey hit coastal Texas it turned into a Tropical Storm. What forecasters didn't foresee was the amount of rainfall it would dump onto Houston and the ensuing flooding.

      tristan molina Not that bad for you, quite a few of my family members couldnt afford the flood insurance on their houses, lost a lot of furniture and their house is half way under water. They're going to be without a home for 2 weeks plus.

      It is horrible. My entire neighborhood (I am the first street - half okay, my half) is under water. This just happened last year. EVERYTHING they owned on the streets. War zone. This will be magnified 1,000,000 times. I'm sure I will have house guests.

      Mook Wolf they don't really show much of the damage on the news (here at least) and if they do you can't really compare it to anything because you've never seen it before so I felt the same way. I knew it was bad, just not that there was such a huge amount of water in some places like that freeway

      Yes I live there and drive those roads all week. It was horrible..video doesn’t justify it. My brother in law, myself, and a few friends took jet skis out to help...I was literally pulling people from their houses...roofs..2nd story floors..I would bump in to things under water and realize it was a truck or street sign.. it was crazy. Worst I’ve ever seen it in Houston.

We lost our apt, one cat, it's devastating. Of course alot of help from FEMA but no money in the world can get you what you lost back or your fear of it happening again and again. #HOUSTONSTRONG

    On a positive note, we got to miss a week of school lol. I know some schools flooded out, but hopefully we can get back to school soon...
    Aside from that, the flood has gone down a bit in some areas like mine. My family was able to come back to Houston after evacuating. Blessed to only have minor damages to our home. We'll probably have to replace the flooring and some parts of the ceilings and walls. Hopefully everyone recovers and stays safe. I wish the best for the ones who's homes were destroyed. 🙏🏽
    Make sure to help and donate to Houston, every dollars counts. Even my family donated...

    That's really deep water in some spots. I live up the road from a river that goes through my whole town. It does flood our schools baseball fields sometimes and one year I remember it crested at 23 feet and flooded our township building and 50 homes. I can't even imagine if it was 55 feet crest like Houstons rivers. Our whole town would be under water and that breaks my heart. Houston is a big city made up of smaller towns like mine and so many are now gone. I'm trying to put myself in their shoes with this but I can't even imagine. I don't care what you believe in. Pray to it, send positive vibes to it, worship to it for Houston. And not just Houston. The whole area that was affected. Everyone's focusing on this flood but it flooded and winds destroyed other parts of the state and other states. I'm not even sure what I meant to get out with this comment and I wish I could do more than donate. God (or whatever you believe in) help these people

      Except when the whole city is done for.... don't be ignorant. It will take everyone to help Houston rebuild and we all want to see that happen.

    Does anyone know how badly flooded Kirby Drive in River Oaks is? My home is there, and I can't get to it, or find out if it is flooded.

    I was only a high school sophomore when this incident happening. It was just all of a sudden and I thought when it started it would be just a little rain.

    The sad thing is, is that I've driven through all of these places and it's sad to see how they turned out. I believe one of the roads is the road I take to go to hockey. Where I live we didn't get hit that but, but there was still a lot of water, rain and wind.

    Man that is crazy. The whole country needs to step up. If you're not close enough to go and help or to offer shelter to a displaced family you can still donate to the red cross. Every bit helps.
