I've watched the pattern all day. This smaller band should merge with the larger band to the sw. Its every bit as explosive as all the other bands, if not more. The only differnce is this one started building from s to n, opposite of the others.

I hope you hear from them soon! Rain has stopped for now here. I have never seen so much water in the yard like I did this evening. And only time I saw our street flooded like it was this evening was during Allison.
Getting a break from the rain in Seabrook area. Street completely under...about 6 feet up the driveways. Looks like it is flowing toward the drains..as long as we keep getting these break we should be ok. On another note, the mosquitoes are AWFUL!
Edit to add: Already raining again...harder than before.

We just had over 80+mph wind gusts here in Pasadena and Deer Park. Scared the you know what out of me as I wasn't looking at velocity radar and figured it was a tornado.

YES but the "good news" is that it will shift the rain bands to LA.

...FLASH FLOOD EMERGENCY FOR LIFE-THREATENING CATASTROPHIC FLOODING...
.DISCUSSION...
Epic and catastrophic flooding has occurred in and around the
Houston and Galveston areas and surrounding communities overnight,
and very heavy rains continue falling across these areas early
this morning. Rainfall totals between Saturday evening and early
this morning have totaled 15 to 30 inches. Tropical Storm Harvey
is approximately 50 miles east southeast of San Antonio and has
remained nearly stationary all night long. Showers and thunderstorms
along Harvey`s feeder bands have spread 4 to 6 inch per hour producing
rainfall rates resulting in this historic event. Activity continues
spreading across already devastated areas with hourly rainfall
rates averaging around 4 to 5 inches in the Matagorda-Brazoria
County storms and around 6 to 7 inches in the Galveston-Harris
County area storms. We might get a break from the rain some time
later today, but additional storm development is likely overnight.
It is possible that these new storms could become concentrated a
little further westward than this morning`s activity. However,
with Harvey expected to remain in the same general area between
its current location and the coast over the next several days,
additional life-threatening rainfall totals of 15 to 25 inches
with isolated higher amounts are possible across the Flash Flood
Watch area over the next several days, and results could be
devastating if any of these rains fall where catastrophic flooding
has already occurred. 42

.HYDROLOGY...
There have been record crests across numerous bayous across southern
Harris County overnight. Due to the heavy rain, we are expecting
record crests during the week ahead. 43
One word.........EPIC!!! The house almost took on water early this morning. I have never seen flooding this bad in the neighborhood with multiple homes flooded. 9.47" since midnight.
