Got 7.5 inches of rain here. Rain over 10 inches in Houston. Lost power for 7 hours but have it back now.

This is not a bayou.
Spoiler:
This is highway 288!

A friend lost her home on Braes Bayou.

More rain predicted every day this week.

It has been all over the news. Crazy ****. The good news is that your friend only lost her house. Seems to be a few people didn't make it out alive.

Good thing you've got a boat, right?

My brother and I just flew home from Memphis yesterday and we had a layover in Houston. We were watching out the window as we landed and saw some of the flooding. Pretty wild. Best wishes to those dealing directly with this.
