You may have already seen these pics, but I figured they were intense enough to be seen again:

wow that really sucks, but while I was looking at these I couldnt stop thinking about wakeskating behind that truck going down the flooded road with people in the bed; with that aerial shot it would look sick.

Wow. So much damage done, my prayers go out to those who were affected by the storm. The picture of the coffins is disturbing.

RecriminatioN, fastgreens and I live in Baytown, we had quite a bit of flooding Sad
*Nate, thanks bro, I think the cemetary shot was from Orange, TX. they had enough water to saturate the grounds and lift the vaults and caskets up.

I just cooked the best spam and ranch style beans on my grill with an old school iron skillet Neutral time to shut it down and get back to cuttin' trees in the morn. Goodnight everyone

Yea I noticed that too it is freaking tall! They need it to be tall to get large/tall boats under it. Guess they didn't have enough river to make the bridge longer with a more gentle slope.
