Checking in. I did fine. A little cabin fever, because it rained almost non stop Tuesday-Thursday, but the street never even held water.

The bulk of Houston's issues were street flooding, and idiots who think they are driving snorkeled high water vehicles when they stall their Honda Civics in high water.

Looks like some subdivisions in Kingwood way northeast, took some water into homes, but the bulk of the damage was in the very rural Winnie area, east of Houston.

Edit: Two deaths reported, one guy who was witnessed stopping his car, then driving full speed ahead into and underpass with 8 feet of water in it. Suicide?

The other death was pretty awful....a 19 year old guy trying to rescue his horse from flood waters got electrocuted by a downed power line that he probably didn't see. No word on the horse.
