this point. this is about three times as wide as it typically is and this is about as high as this river has ever gone. it's nearly crested. nearly going over the banks. we spoke to a gentleman yesterday who lives about 50 feet from this river's edge. he says is he going to be okay. but there are people that live near this river that are much lower than he is that could be a big problem. >> right across the river. >> most folks are under water. >> all of the rain up north shed back down to the gulf. this is its path. last i heard it's supposed to crest sometime early friday morning. we have another day of it coming up slowly. rob: just because it's not raining doesn't mean the water can't still rise. rivers flow. they are bringing rainwater and everything else, flooding from other areas. that's the big issue with the brazos river and other rivers we will see here today even though the sky will be clear and sun out. v.p. pence come to town now. he was here a few days ago.
