Skyeye surveying San Jacinto River amid disaster declaration for flooding

[@Nirrrina]

Ima Survivor Sanctuary has already evacuated their animals including the pigs. They've evacuated the Morrow families smaller animals too & moved the cattle to high ground over the last few days. But its up to Shirtless Jakes backdoor & they're opening gates & cutting fences for any animal that needs it. ISS does have a berm that's higher than Harvey ever was. Everyone is watching & praying for both them & others. Lester will be posting drone footage soon too.

[@meangreen6044]

Some of those areas are very old, not new builds. I think this was done intentionally to get them to move so the real estate people can take the land and build on it. In newer areas around Houston, they build bayous to prevent flooding. And they’ll even go back and deepen and widen the bayous to prevent flooding. The old neighborhoods don’t have that so they flood more.

[@LoriL010]

Hasn't there always been floods in that area? I know there was a bad one in 1994.

[@LaurieDean-wy3xb]

@@LoriL010 1994 was the first recorded one in generations, so a hundred years or so. But this one makes 3 more in just the last 7 years. A few years ago Lester showed a video of natural drainage areas being intentionally disrupted for the benefit of, let's say, financial gain... showing road damage and flooding situations that had never occurred in many generations of their family's heritage in that area. Having worked for a city government myself, I know that the elected officials are supposed to conduct proper zoning laws to prevent such things. I've also seen things in my own small town in a very flat region of Texas where the same thing happened to a neighborhood that never flooded prior to a new development that now floods often, even causing their property to be reestablished as a flood zone, causing their property values to drop and their insurance premiums to soar.

[@LoriL010]

@@LaurieDean-wy3xb Who is Lester? A reporter? And Texas is growing too fast. 1994 and Harvey, both record rainfalls, so it's not a 100 year floodplain anymore obviously. I wish people would stop moving here, but you nor I can stop them. Abbott keeps luring major businesses here with open arms and generational tax free or reduced tax benefits. And no one attends their local planning and zoning meetings to contest new development before they even start. A very small percentage I can guarantee you. So...here we are.

[@jessgunn6639]

PLUM GROVE planners have a lot to answer for granting permission that blocked of so many drainage channels completely exacerbated the situation. if the source is down playing it you need to ask how much money they have made and are making from this development!

[@michaelshrader5139]

Because City of Plum Grove didn't approve a permit request by the Developer in 2015 (at the advice of the City Engineer who had concerns about the flooding it would cause if city approved it), the Developer sued the City of Plum Grove in Federal Court for $2 million that year! A little city of barely 600 people (including children) did not have the funds to fight such a lawsuit. Developer offered to dismiss his lawsuit only if city agreed to a 45 year exemption from all future city taxes, annexation AND REGULATION! The little city having no choice, agreed to the developer's demands. So the only regulation would have had to come from Liberty County Commissioners Court and Judge Jay Knight since then... and they stamped "Approved" on every permit every plat of lots for sale that Colony Ridge has wanted! So who is to blame for this mess then? You have to know the entire story before you start to place blame Jess! Now I was on the Texas Ethics Commission's website Searching their database of campaign finance records and donations, and I found where the Developer William Harris (using various alias mind you) and his wife Celeste Harris have donated $1.5 Million to Governor Gregg Abbott... among others. So you might want to have somebody ask Gregg about that Jess cause I've begged reporters to ask him and these news reporters around Houston area do NOT want to talk with me or anything!

They know they are expecting more rain why aren’t they releasing a little water at a time prior to these events

[@generictester]

exactly. Man-made disaster. Cui bono? Who will file a court suit?

[@michaelshrader5139]

That has been asked so many times... because if you lower lake levels you lose the ability to launch boats so the lakes become unusable if it doesn't rain enough to fill them back up. If you go to lowering lakes levels days before a possible heavy rain event, then the event misses your watershed area or isn't nearly as bad as it had been predicted to be, now you have a lake with unusable low water levels that you cannot fill back up because you cannot close off the dam which would dry up the river system below the dam. Storm-water from the Dallas area is still coming down the Trinity River from Dallas, it'll be a few more days before it reaches Lake Livingston and they know it's coming the Livingston dam was releasing 100,000 cubit feet of water per second last I checked and it's got the Trinity River below the dam just max'ed out and is flooding communities all along it but they have no choice they have to get the lake level lowered (from all the rain that just fell locally) in order to make room for the inrush of water from the Dallas area now... timing is everything when it's raining so hard over such a large area all within days of each rain event! People living near the river systems are prone to being flooded weeks like this, such houses aught to be required to be built on tall pilings but so many don't do it that way. What'cha gonna do?
