The high fall rates are over a couple days and not technically high at all. The ground will absorb because it is thirstier than a ho on Westheimer. Low lying, usual low flooding spots will happen. Maybe. 4951

I'm hoping they make the decision to close the office early if they're going to. Don't know if I'll be able to make it in yet but I hate getting the email that the office is closed as I'm getting into the parking garage. 4951
