Looks like you've gotten quite a bit of rain just like we have here in H-town. So far this week has been nothing but rain and thunderstorms. It's expected to continue all week. Wheeee.
I know Abilene's drainage isn't worth crap. I don't think Houston's is either.
From what I remember from the 5 years I was in west TX... it's so dry that the ground can't soak the water up fast enough. Here the ground gets saturated and it keeps raining. Same result ~ flooding.
Our street already flooded this year. Water was creeping up into the yard, covering the sidewalk. Kids were wading in the street. Gah! Thankfully it didn't reach the house.
