Heavy storms lead to flooding in Houston area

The water levels rose quickly and in some cases, came dangerously close to homes in the Needville area.
Sybil Henry has lived in the area for about 30 years. She said her homes have flooded three times since 2017.
“What we started doing is picking up everything off the floor. I had blocks made 2×4′s so that if it rains I can easily put my furniture on the blocks,” Henry said.
Needville Mayor Andre Bohac estimates that 10% of residents had water in their homes. He said one of the hardest-hit areas was near Beasley and Church Street.
