I just wanted ask all of you good people to please stay home. Most of our freeways have at least 2 areas of main lanes closes due to flooding and most frontage roads are closed due to flooding. If you have friends and family on the east side of town please advise them to stay home as well. IH 10 is closed at McCarty and Lockwood because of higj waters and there are people stuck there because they can not exit the freeway. Also IH 610 East Loop is closed from Market to the Ship Channel.
Be safe and try to stay dry!! 4951

@Odin: Happens every time. People don't listen and honestly think they can make it through. Hard to have much sympathy for that level of hard-headedness.

Other than emergency personnel, no one should be trying to get on the roads now. Lots of freeway closures where there are low spots. 4951

@buffaloglenn:
 
Wait until its light out at least. I hear quit a few vehicles on KWD and wondered what in the heck they are thinking driving in this storm, in the dark. You wouldnt be able to see a flooded out area until you were right on top of it with how fast they are going. 4951

Just a reminder that a lot of people in this city are essential service types.  First responders, medical, refineries, CP linemen, airport personnel, even restaurant workers are needed (to keep people fed).  Difficult to keep everybody off the road, though I am sure there are some daytrippers out there - karma will get them. 4951

The police at the station downtown can't get out. Anyone who parked on ground level has lost their car to flooding.
I hope they parked the cruisers in the multi level garage.
 
Did you all see that Metro parked buses in the HOV lane on 59? Are they still there? 4951

@lola:
 
They said they were there for staging purposes and to keep them from being flooded in so they would be accessible if needed. Kind of smart thinking I guess...
