In 2007 I was driving my Yaris back to Califorrnia (after a trip to Florida, etc) and scheduled a particular dat to check out Houston (staying the night before and after so I would have a full day). I arrived in Houston, spent the night, and planned to spend that next day getting more familiar with areas that had been recommended to me by friends who now live in California. Unfortunately, that day ended up being the day Tropical Storm Erin occurred. My hotel was in the worst hit section of the city (11 inches of rain) and I stayed inside my hotel all day....so I know how wet some of your city is right now (It was much easier for me though, as all of my belongings were still dry in California)....and it's so localized......240+ miles away here and not a drop!
