**** 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season: Tropical Depression 18 | Heading to the Gulf ****

Hope everyone is doing well. Sorry for the lack of updates, but thankfully this storm didn’t get any stronger than it did. It’s already causing a mess as a cat 1.

The builders planted 2 oak trees in my front yard, they said missouri city code required them to do it. I planned to get them removed this summer before they get too big.

Fucking oaks get too big plus the roots fuck up the plumbing and foundation.

The oaks and pines are the worst to have, them pines will snap like nothing and fall on a hpuse

I'm in Mo City too. I'm in a older subdivision, luckily the city or the hoa didn't do anything when I got rid of mine.

I'm sure you saw it's headed to Canada.
At times this thing hit 65mph at the end, one of the outer bands.

I literally had no damage then some gusts started at the end at about 11am and put in work. Crazy thing was you could hear almost sounded like a loud slow 'burp", then the wind came like a few seconds after in a major gust. Heard that 3 times this morning at the end

The builders said I could take them out as soon as I moved in, but city code made them put 2 in the front yard.

Now the bitch ass HOA, gotta submit paperwork to remove or plant something else in the spot.

I’ve been saying the same thing all morning. This storm did a little bit more damaged than I thought it would do y’all better be glad this wasn’t a category five

 

[meilmarc]

I'm still getting wind gusts and rain even though the storm has moved way to the north. I'm located on the south

This dumb ass must have been trying to get rid of his truck. Everyone knows that 288 is like a damn bowl.

There's some areas that always tend to flood, I wouldn't be surprised if some people left their cars in some places on purpose.

A lot of people got caught a little by surprise of the strength of this category one storm

The insurance companies are going to have a major fit

I could be wrong, but isn't parts of Houston below sea level?

Many parts have poor drainage which is why it floods a lot with the slightest rain at times.

Nope the city was built on a dredge out swamp and natural wetlands.

Houses are supposed to be built on at least a 4 foot grade. The streets and highways are built to flood, which drain into the bayous which then let out into the gulf. During cane's the storm surge backs up which stops the drainage

In other words when it rains very hard, the water has nowhere to go

We only got about 20 mins of light rain here in Dallas. Barely enough to wet the ground.
