Gunner are you in the flood prone area?

Nope, I'm smack on top of the only real hill in town.
It floods all around but not here. During Alicia I could walk 200 yards
and see 30 feet of water on Memorial drive, but was able to navigate in & out another way.

My Mom, however lives in Pearland which is basically a rice field.

She might have some trouble.

There will be no problem for her. She gets your bed, you sleep on the couch.

Yeah, I'm thinking you should get your Mom up to your hill.

I live in Pearland also, right off 518 halfway between 228 and 35. We just moved here in December.

If they suspect a direct hit will they issue a mandatory evacuation, or is that only for areas further south? My biggest concern is all the big, old trees around our house. How much of an issue would flooding be?
