Hi:
As you may have seen on the news, we have been having some nasty weather
in Houston and much of central Texas & Oklahoma. Houston has had some of
the worst flooding since the big storm of 2001 (Allison). Lots of
damage, 3 dead in Houston so far.
While some neighborhoods have been hit hard, all is well here at the
hi-tech hacienda. LOTS of rain last night; over 8 inches in my
neighborhood. But only slight street flooding on my block. Water never
rose above the curb.
A power surge killed my HD table radio in the kitchen, but everything
else seems to be working. The house never really lost power or Internet
access.
Much of the city is immobilized due to residual flooding in some areas
and roads blocked due to abandoned vehicles.
I am staying close to home while the authorities sort out the chaos.

Here is some coverage from the Weather Channel and (at the end of the
article) several hundred pictures of the festivities.
