re: #475 Eclectic Cyborg

Holy FUCK.

Not even Katrina did shit like that.

These are people who live at the edge of Addicks Reservoir who are informed that this can happen when water has to be released from the reservoir to protect the dam integrity. It’s happened before - last year if I’m not mistaken.

Sure sucked the way they’re doing it though. Decision/announcement was made at like 7pm that they are doing it tonight starting at 2am. Just a few hours notice and in the midst of torrential rain. Those folks in the area about to be flooded have precious little notice to get out. Seems a bit more warning, earlier in the day during the storm lull would have been damn friendly of them.
