texas rainfall

texas rainfall?
I'm going to houston tomorrow and I heard that it has been raining for awhile. Will my flight be delayed? Is Houston one of the cities that are flooded? What about San Antonio? Is the RiverWalk flooded?

oooweeee, houston's not a place you wanna be right now. it started raining last night and hasn't stopped yet. It's been raining the past week and it's supposed to rain for at least another week. and yes, houston floods ALL THA TIME. it floods bad with just OND day of heavy rain, and they've been having it for a lil more than a week now. the highways are flooding right now, and they usually get shut down. i don't know about san antonio though.

Yes, it's raining. And yes it's possible your flight may be delayed. And yes, Houston is one of the cities that are flooded. But, no, I think San Antonio is drying out after the rain of last week. Don't think the River Walk is flooded. They have flood control gates that can keep the level of water in the River Walk area somewhat constant.

It has been raining in the majority of Texas for the past two weeks. Dallas had major floods and so far Houston has been spared. I have not heard anything about San Antonio. If it floods anywhere, it usually drains within hours. Flights are delayed if there are lightning storms.

The reports of Houston flooding are exaggerated. People from out of town think we are in boats right now to get down the street. We have heavy rains and some of the lanes of certain streets get flooded. And 2 hours later, they are almost dry. The street near my house had a dry lane down the middle of the road with water over the curbs on both sides. After lunch, there was about an inch of water against the curb. While we have had to use boats in the past, there is nothing like that now. And it could delay your flight.

Personally, I live in West Houston and I haven't seen any flooding at all on our side of town. Yes it's raining daily, pretty hard at times, but that happens pretty regularly in this city. It's not really raining much today that I've seen, so here's to hoping your flight will come in fine.
