  • Just not very smart to have a huge tree next to your house. "But it's so pretty"

    I hope everyone gets power as soon as possible; its supposed to be in the 90s the rest of the week
  • The sky did turn green! I'm in Cypress Texas near Tomball. This thing came in hard, lasted about 30 min or so, and I mean it was wicked. The sky was a weird color, the winds were fierce! Then it was gone! I live in a residential of about 400,000 dollar homes. Tree branches and debris everywhere! The audience you need to know, I had no cell phone signal for hours! That's how fragile it is! Our security. Our lines of communication. We didn't know how bad it was out there in this massive city. A 30 minute storm! Approx. 30 minutes is all it took! Power is out! It's near 0800 hrs this morning. The bayou that is behind our homes was flooding and rolling good after that storm, which is great, however for Woodlands, and Kingwood, Montgomery County etc bad bad signs of flooding. Look, these storm have been going on here and in the Midwest! For weeks! This is a bad, bad, sign! I think that summer will be brutal! Florida/hurricanes, etc! Love, from Cypress Texas, Harris County! 30 minutes is all it took! Grid down!!!!! Mayday! Grid is down!
  • Wow! If only the person who owns that truck had parked it 6 feet backwards.

    A neighbors' tree fell on her roof and it took several years to fix stuff. The insurance company was really slow. Good Luck. Hope the renters are okay.

  • @user-gt8st3qf4o
    In my part of NE Texas and in my neighborhood, we have MANY trees as big as that. We've been rained on for weeks now, 10 inches in April alone. I'm just waiting for those giant old trees to begin falling. Yesterday, it rained here yet again.

    This is why you’re not supposed to have huge trees right next to your house.
