I remember it well, too, because I flew out of Houston over it all, so had a bird's-eye view. By my house, Brays Bayou was worse than even the later TS Allison flooding--and we were in the area of max rainfall for Allison. Oct 94 was much worse, which I think made them do some work on the drainage channels before Allison.

I've never seen anything as bad as Allison. When you drive into Houston and the water is up to the railings on the overpasses, that's bad. When most of the medical center basements and lower floors are flooded, that's bad. Hard lessons learned on both.
