They just announced on KHOU that a 80,000 cfm release has started from the dam on Lake Livingston. This was necessitated by damage to the dam that needs to be assessed.

They are trying to prevent a breach or catastrophic failure of the dam. Downstream flooding will occurr and evacs have been ordered:

They are trying to prevent a breach or catastrophic failure of the dam. Downstream flooding will occur and evacs have been ordered This will approach TS Allison levels of flooding.
