We saw some of that flooding all over the roadways. Now were talking about major highways, i10 south of here. 69 is closed. Beaumont becoming its own mini island, and in very many places across jefferson county, you have islands just trying to get help to them, because there are so many rivers that are passing through. Rivers that used to be streamtr like this street behind me. You see the water coming off the street there. Thats traveling into a drainage ditch, and this is the problem. We just saw a man try to cross the drainage ditch. He thought it was a street. He was almost washed away before our eyes. He was able to swim right back up before the current took him away. That is why police are saying here in southeast, texas, this is not over by any means. The brunt of the storm may be head thing way right now. Drew griffin in beaumont. Emergency services and possible rescues to go into Eastern Parts of texas into western louisiana. We thought new orleans was going to have rain, four
