The outer bands that pounded us Saturday & Sunday moved on to LA (2pm)

Continue south on FM-518 and pass the Chamber of Commerce

Reach the Fwood Link intersection with Cowart Creek just beyond

Emergency vehicles stay high & dry above the waters of Clear Creek

Boater continues on the east side of the bridge approaching Winding Way

That is not a line of people waiting outside The Cake Lady

There are some not disappointed by Heartbreakers flooding

Now heading north on I-45, just south of FM-517, at the Go-Karts

May be awhile before the Go-Karts are up and running again

Cross over FM-517 and sadly see Little Monterey is taking on water

But offshore eye of Harvey's dirty side was due north today (2pm)

Heavy rain (red) fell in the area all day long (8:30pm)

An hour later, the rain is still pouring down (9:30pm)

Keep hoping for a gap in the downpour to allow some drainage (9:30pm)

With the eye of the storm due south of Houston, the rain pours on

Still pouring at 10:30pm, the rain will finally stop in four more hours
