There are a couple stretches of freeway under water still which is causing major traffic as people start heading back to work and school.
15 minute commutes turning in to hours long crawls. I live 5 minutes from the job and it took me half an hour today.
I feel for my coworkers..I'd be ready to road rage on someone.
Yo lazy ass couldn't walk to work?? -

President Donald Trump on Wednesday assured North Dakotans that they are “better off” than Texans caught in the massive destruction and flooding left by Hurricane Harvey.
“You witnessed the unyielding strength and resilience of the American spirit. You looked at that in Texas,” Trump said in a speech at a North Dakota oil refinery.
He touted his two visits to the hurricane-hit area before assuring North Dakotans that they were doing better than those recovering from historic rainfall and catastrophic flooding.
“I know you have a little bit of a drought. They had the opposite. Believe me, you’re better off,” Trump said. “You are better off. They had the absolute opposite.”

The NCAA has granted University of Houston officials a special waiver to begin distributing donated T-shirts and shoes to people affected by Hurricane Harvey, including high school student-athletes.
Cougars athletics director Hunter Yurachek told ESPN that NCAA executive vice president of regulatory affairs Oliver Luck sent him a text message Saturday morning to notify him that the waiver had been granted.

"The NCAA was very quick in getting us this waiver," Yurachek said. "There's a rule in place that makes sense, other than when you have 100,000 T-shirts coming in for hurricane victims. The NCAA has granted us a waiver and it's full steam ahead."
Cougars men's basketball coach Kelvin Sampson started the campaign on Twitter more than a week ago, asking coaches around the country to donate their excess T-shirts and sneakers to help hurricane victims in Texas.
Yurachek estimated that Houston officials have received more than 100,000 T-shirts and tens of thousands of pairs of shoes. He said the Los Angeles Lakers, Milwaukee Bucks, Boston Red Sox and Tampa Bay Rays sent boxes of donations to Houston this week, in addition to those from pro teams, colleges and high schools in all 50 states.
"We've been floored," Yurachek said. "It's been overwhelming. Coach Sampson is in there every day unloading boxes of shoes and folding T-shirts. We're probably getting 200 to 300 boxes of shoes and T-shirts every day."
The Cougars will start distributing the T-shirts and shoes next week.
"Somewhere along the line, this rule makes sense," Yurachek said. "But nobody thought to put in an exception like a natural disaster. The NCAA gets a bad rap, but the NCAA just enforces the rule that the membership introduces and votes on." -
My area is projected to be underwater by Tuesday...

Those pictures were taken on Thursday. I don't know how or when they're planning on coming to collect all the debris and piles of flooded belongings, but I hope it's soon. On some streets it was hard to maneuver a truck through all the piles. The air stinks of mold, garbage and death. I'm certain there are some dead creatures in some of those piles.
It's not the whole city, but there are many specific areas around town that were completely devastated. Entire neighborhoods.
Can't even imagine. I almost felt like I was experiencing survivors guilt. We basically got a 4 day weekend. Didn't even lose power. The affected folks have a long road ahead.
