That's right, all that stuff at the house can be repaired or replaced.



Are you still trying to get out of town, or hanging tight now where you are?

Hanging tight for today. The news just said the are opening and closing I10. I guess I hit it wrong.

I cannot speak for the accuracy of this, but I was sent this map for people needing to be rescued. Please note it is not my map and use it at your own risk.

Not sure if it's been posted yet, the levee protecting Pecan Grove north of Richmond broke earlier today.

I know people over there that aren't flooded yet but the neighborhood is pretty much stranded as far as access.

Please spread this to everyone below the Livingston dam!!!

Any more information on this? Is this the breach by plantation and bittersweet?

I am hearing that they are going to open the Livingston dam 100%, not sure how much truth there is to this but that is going to be catastrophic to everyone downstream if they do.
Prayers to all families in these areas.

I don't have clear info, I live on the other side of town. All I know is it breached about 6am today.

It's the only one that I know of. Problem is, the river is no where near done rising so that water will continue to rise in PG.

Does anyone know if 105 below conroe dam is passable? It is showing that its not closed but slow traffic.

From Mcaleb road all the way to montgomery is clear and drivable.

Also... the new Kroger in Montgomery is open and stocked for those that need food/provisions.
