Galveston Flooding 2002

Still trying to find my pics from Allison. I think I might have them on a disk or two somewhere at home.

Meanwhile, here are a few from Aug 2002. These are all in the vicinity of the Railroad Museum down off The Strand and back behind it before alot of that area became parking for cruise ship passengers.

Galveston flood zone :)

Sorry for the double AFD post but thought this is a better thread

The latest Hou-Gal AFD title says it all.....

...POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS FLOOD SITUATION DEVELOPING FOR SATURDAY...

.DISCUSSION...
NO BIG SURPISES IN THE OFFING THIS FORECAST PACKAGE - WE ARE GOING
TO SEE SOME RAIN. THE CWA LARGELY CLEAR OF THE HEAVIEST RAINS THIS
AFTN AS MOST OF THE STORMS ARE FOCUSED ALONG THE OFFSHORE BOUNDARY.
SOME LIGHT/MODERATE RAINS LINGERING ALONG THE COAST AND DEVELOPING
OVER THE FAR NERN ZONES BUT THEY ARE NOT CAUSING THAT MUCH CONCERN
ATTM. SFC ANALYSES INDICATING THAT A SFC LOW MAY BE TRYING TO FORM
OVER THE LOWER/MIDDLE TX COAST. THIS MAY BE A PROBLEM FOR TOMORROW
AS THIS COULD PUSH THE OFFSHORE BOUNDARY INLAND AS THE NEXT STRONG
S/W MOVES INTO THE REGION OVERNIGHT/EARLY TOMORRW. WITH THIS FEAT-
URE ACTING AS A FOCUS AND THE GROUNDS OVER MOST OF SE TX SATURATED
WE COULD BE LOOKING AT A POTENTIALLY SERIOUS FLOOD SITUATION LATER
TONIGHT/TOMORROW SHOULD THE MODELS VERIFY. FURTHER TO THE WEST...
MORE KINKS IN THE MACHINERY ARE LOOMING. STRONG STORMS (SPURRED BY
AFTN HEATING) DEVELOPING AROUND THE UPPER LOW MAY THROW A FEW MORE
BOUNDARIES THIS WAY. FFA WILL REMAIN UP AND ABOUT THROUGH TOMORROW
6 PM NEEDLESS TO SAY. BUT WOULD NOT BE AT ALL SURPRISED IF THE FFA
WILL BE EXTENDED INTO SUNDAY AS PROGS CONTINUE WITH THIS SAME (AND
NOW QUITE FAMILIAR) WX PATTERN - UPPER TROFFINESS LINGERING AS PWS
HOVER AT/ABOVE 2" AND ADDITIONAL S/WS MAKE TRACK ACROSS THE STATE.

Nice picture!

Unfortunately, it does look to be very wet tomorrow across much of eastern Texas.
