NWS just told me that you have had over 10" in BC area. It is now moving slowly S or SE to me. We are getting pounded now. I guess I get to sleep during the daytime hours tomorrow if I'm not trying to save things like Jen.

edit 4:22 am- I don't know how much rain we have had here, but we have water in the house also. It is not like Jen's yet, but the water is higher than I have seen it ever here. It is at least a foot over our curb and we are at the higher end. The water in the house is minimal so far and due to the yard not being able to handle the deluge which was definitely worse than anything I have seen in any storm or hurricane, including Allison. My guess would be 6" per hour rates for at least some of the time. Right now I would guess it is still coming down at at least 2" per hour. I'm sure there will be quite a few homes flooded tonight all over NW Houston.

[srainhoutx]

4 Feet of water on my street. Water retention ponds are overflowing in Copper Grove. Update from Jeff Lindner...

Excessive rainfall pounding NW Harris County.



Since yesterday afternoon 7-10 inches has fallen from Katy to W of The Woodlands.



Channels:



Little Cypress Creek is going out of banks along the entire channel



Willow Creek is out of banks along the entire channel…house flooding possible along Willow



Upper Cypress is nearing bankfull and will go out of banks this morning



Bear Creek is out of banks



Langham Creek is out of Banks



South Mayde Creek is out of banks



White Oak Bayou is bankfull in Jersey Village

438 AM CDT TUE APR 28 2009

.DISCUSSION...
EXCESSIVE RAINFALL RATES OVER WESTERN HARRIS COUNTY THIS
MORNING...8 TO 10 INCH STP BETWEEN TOMBALL AND KATY. THE AREA
BETWEEN CYPRESS AND JERSEY VILLAGE AREA HAS BEEN HIT THE HARDEST
SINCE MIDNIGHT WITH REPORTS OF FLOODED ROADWAYS AND WATER ENTERING
HOMES EAST OF KATY. NEVERTHELESS...ALL FOCUS HAS BEEN ON THE SHORT
TERM SINCE THIS CLUSTER HAS BEEN AFFECTING WESTERN HARRIS...EASTERN
WALLER AND NORTHERN FORT BEND COUNTIES THIS MORNING. NOT A TEXT
BOOK SITUATION AS CLUSTER MOST LIKELY FORMED ON AN OLD OUTFLOW
BOUNDARY LEFT OVER FROM THE EARLY MONDAY EVENING CONVECTION...HAS
TAKEN A LIFE OF ITS OWN SINCE THEN. A MORE ORGANIZED CLUSTER SHOWING
SIGNS OF WEAK BOWING...AND BROAD ROTATION FROM JERSEY VILLAGE DOWN
INTO BELLAIRE. THUS...SEVERES AND A TORNADO WARNING OUT AS THERE
EXISTS A HIGH PROBABILITY THAT WE COULD GET SOME SPIN UPS RIGHT
ALONG THIS INBOUND-OUTBOUND INTERFACE. MAIN THREAT IS STILL FLOODING
AS WE HEAD INTO THE MORNING RUSH HOUR.

TODAY`S FORECAST IS FOR THIS LARGE CLUSTER TO SLOWLY MOVE
TOWARDS...AND OVER...THE CITY BEFORE SUNRISE. AMPLE INFLOW INTO
THIS MINI-MCS AS DOWNSTREAM WINDS AT HOBBY AND PEARLAND ARE COMING
OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST AT 12-17G26 KNOTS. AWAY FROM THIS SYSTEM ARE
WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED STORMS MOVING NORTHEAST
ACROSS THE NORTHWESTERN FA. ALL OF THIS ACTIVITY LIKELY ASSOCIATED
WITH A VORT ENTERING THE PINEY WOODS. GFS HAVING A BETTER HANDLE
ON ITS LOCATION...ALSO ADVERTISING INCREASING DIFFULENCE TOWARDS
NE TEXAS THROUGH 12Z. THUS...KEPT POPS IN THE LIKELY CATEGORY FOR
MANY POINTS NORTH OF THE I-10 CORRIDOR THROUGH MID-DAY...MODERATE
CHANCE PAST NOON WITH HOPES THAT SUBSIDENCE ON THE BACK SIDE OF
THIS LATEST WAVE OCCURS...OR AIR MASS FINALLY STABILIZES PER
EFFICIENT RAIN-COOLING EFFECTS.

VERY HEAVY RAIN INTO THE HOU METRO AREA OVER THE THE NEXT HOUR OR SO.

WTH....how much more can y'all take down there?

I saw you mentioned the dreaded 'A' name on the last page David. Is it really getting that bad?

I can't reasonably expect that complex of storms to just evaporate or move on, so I'm just praying the rain stops falling as heavily, starting now!

...On a side note, why does Harris County seem to attract these motionless deluges? It seems like every time a storm sets up, sits still, and dumps torrential rain anywhere on the Texas Coast, it's within 40 miles of downtown Houston. Does it have something to do with the (lack of) geography there?

[vbhoutex]

Part of the reason this time of year is that we are in an area where weather patterns seem to converge with troughs coming in from the N and/or W and plenty of moisture coming in from the West and of course plenty of moisture coming up off the GOM.
I just dumped 5.3" out of my gauge. That makes 8.6" here at the house in the last 12 hours and I suspect that is low. We now have numerous road closings, including freeways, several school districts closed and/or delayed. My wife's boss called and has water in his house and told everyone just to stay put till further notice. Susan couldn't have left if she wanted to anyway. The water is still a foot up over our curbs. When I talked to NWS earlier they told me the Bear Creek area, to my NW and Srain's SW had gotten at least 10" in the deluge this am. That is where Jen Bayles is and she has water in her house. I got water in my house because it couldn't drain off fast enough but it was minor and I do have flood insurance if I need to use it. I'm just hoping my kid's aren't waking up to flooded homes(no calls yet) since they both live near where the worst of this has been like we do. Basically all of W and NW Harris County is inundated and it is still pouring rain.

[KatDaddy]

Thanks for the update David. I am debating coming into downtown this morning. You got the same rains we had last week.

[jasons2k]

I haven't seen anything quite like this at the house yet. It rained all night long - several times I was awakened by CTG lightning.

Some places on the NW side have had 10" of rain.....
