Hell naw. There are probably some people that were still recovering from Harvey smh.

Stuff like this is preventing me from moving out there. Hope there isn't too much damage to people properties.

It crazy how y'all gotta deal with this seemingly every year

It's only going to get worse.

They need to bring in civil engineers to fix the roads, but that probably won't happen until one of the rich neighborhoods gets flattened. From what I've heard the parts of Houston that took real damage were primarily low income areas.

Nah. This hit places like The Woodlands, Kingwood, Splendora, & Spring hard. All burbs. When it comes to flooding, it never discriminates here. Its depends on what zone is hit. How hard & for how long.

You cant built a flat city on coastal swamp land on the banks of bayous, & over time lay concrete, & think it's all good long term.

One place they can start is building park lots that are permeable. Stuff like that will allow the water to seep into the ground, be filtered to an extent as well...

its just more expensive thN puttong down some cheap pavement.
