Thanks for the weather / neighborhood impact video. I live on the north side of I-10 a few minutes drive from Memorial City Mall area. My neighborhood of Spring Branch has seen flooding in some low lying pocket areas. My home has not been damaged by flooding , but some streets just a few blocks away have not fared as well. During a few thunderstorms lasting more than a couple hours some streets have become impassible but drainage usually subsides within a couple hours....if you can wait out the storms. Always safest to be prepared. One of my favorite sayings is..." If the weather forecast says a 20 % chance of rain.......it might mean a 20% chance of DROWNING...if you are in the wrong spot ".
"Great flood of '94" is one of the worst floods ever recorded in Houston history. Pretty much everything between White Oak bayou (Porter/New Caney) and the San Jacinto river literally sank, spanning as far east as Huffman and as far south as FM1960 on the other side of the river. There was an old neighborhood, Forest Cove, wedged between Kingwood & the San Jacinto that was completely washed all the way into Lake Houston that was only recently redeveloped. I'd rate it worse than Allison in '01 since it took nearly 2 weeks for all the water to drain off after the rain stopped, whereas Allison flooding had mostly run off within a couple of days. We've never experienced flooding like that ever before or since that ever lasted anywhere close to that long.
You, should have been in Brazoria County on July 25 th 1979 with Tropical Storm Claudette , 43inches of rain in 24 hours , nothing can compare to that Day !
Clear Lake doesn’t flood. There is an article out detailing how other communities are trying to copy on how well Clear Lake took the rain from Hurricane Harvey.

Sandalwood/Lakeview subdivision in Spring Branch/Memorial has sure been prone to flooding esp during Harvey!!!
Definitely between Little York & Tidwell & 45N. The feeder starts to flood fast in that area
Paker Rd at IH45 and W Bellfort at SW Freeway
Klein area, everything along Theiss and Spring Creek. Wimbledon Champions Subdivision. That subdivision has flooded 4 times since 1998.

90% of Memorial submerged? You clearly don't live here. Any sources?
Don't move to Houston or to the Texas Coast.
This city deserves it, maybe itll get rid of some of the crime
