Re: Are all Houston area teams surviving the flooding?

I'll be honest: flooding IS one of the biggest long-term problems facing the city. But the "more common flooding" you'd experience as a team coming to champs would likely be 1. isolated, 2. contained to the street, and 3. brief.

I do hope all our southeast Texas teams made it through this crazy storm safe and dry.
Yeah, listen to this guy. He's done PR for the Army Corps of Engineers about this stuff.
