Anyone in the Houston area? This looks crazier than we've ever seen.

Read the replies to this tweet. Frightening!

They asked people who refuse to evacuate to put their name or ssn on their hand so they can be identified.

Didn't the mayor say no need to evacuate? While the Gov. was saying they should?

It's crazy here. Seems like the in young Israel neighborhood  rain started yesterday afternoon and continued mostly until the morning. most of the houses are ok but many here did flood or have some water related damage. The amount of water that was here is unbelievable. I'll try to post pics. Today there was a little break in the rain and many seem to have used it to rescue people in flooded homes. The rescues are continuing near here but in our neighborhood water has receded so BH we can hopefully take the rain tonight without causing any new flooding.

People have lost literally everything. Does insurance cover a natural disaster?

Reading that majority in the area don't have flood insurance.
