Tuesday night, the small town of Danbury in Brazoria County had many flooded streets and front yards. An Eyewitness News viewer sent in a picture of people kayaking on Avenue C. Rain was steady for hours.
San Leon has particularly hard hit. Almost 7 inches of rain fell this afternoon. There were reports of high water in several spots there. A funnel cloud was also reported in San Leon, as well as Conroe, San Leon and Galveston.
Flooding remains a concern across the area. A Flash Flood Warning for Galveston County is in effect until 10:45pm. A Flash Flood Watch until from 4am-7pm Wednesday includes Houston and Galveston, as well as the following counties: Brazoria, Chambers, Fort Bend, Galveston, Harris, Liberty, Matagorda, Polk, San Jacinto and Trinity.
And just a reminder - roads are designed to flood so that your home doesn't. That means you want to avoid curb parking.
In Montgomery County, a portion of FM 149 in Montgomery County was shut down due to rising flood waters. At least one pick-up truck was stranded in high water this morning. Most drivers stayed away.
"It's way too dangerous for anybody to go that way," said Gary Conley. "I told the wife I can go through it, but when I got to the other end of the bridge, it wasn't worth it. In 10 years, I've never seen it like this."
