Good morning! I know most of us don't know if our students will need supplies yet but the school in PA that I student taught at contacted me and would like to ship us some school supplies they have collected. Please contact me if you are in need of supplies and if we end up not needing them I will pass them along to another school.

William is able to help Ignacio with whatever is needed and he has lots of tools too. Please let me know when the neighborhood is accessible.

# data[].attributes.body
Our neighborhood is dry and we'll be returning today.

UPDATE: We live at the same apartment complex and had to evacuate yesterday. We are confident that our homes will not receive any damage since we live on the 2nd and 3rd floors. We had to leave our vehicles behind and do not know their status. We also do not know when we will be able to return home. We are staying with a good friend for now. Thank you to everyone who reached out and offered their help, prayers, and well wishes.

# data[].attributes.body
My husband can help with the Valerio's house or anyone else if he knows a little in advance. Let us know when you find out when he can get in.

# data[].attributes.body
We're back home. Dry and safe. Veronica thanks again for being there for us, there are no words that can describe how thankful we are with you and your family. ❤️💕

Our street is the only one in the neighborhood where the water has not receded all the way, but it is passable at this time. Check out the picture of the fish on my street that came from the sewer today (eww...)! I was able to use my "Little Green Machine" steamer to pull water out of the carpet. My concern now is that the mold could develop underneath the floors and in the walls because the carpet is still damp. Overall, we are doing well.

# data[].attributes.body
Domingo will be able to help at Ignacio's house as long as he can get there. Please PM his address and let us know the time.

# data[].attributes.body
We were able to get into our home this morning and were fortunate no water in the house. Many neighbors did. We are still under evacuation pending what happens with the Brazos.

# data[].attributes.body
I just called Mario, his house is flooded they are staying at a friend's house. He will contact us with updates. He sends his regards to our Rees Family.

Team,
So far this morning I have spoken to Michelle Fonseca, Atenea Raptis, and Ignacio/Flor Alvarez.

Michelle's family has lost everything as the flooding waters went all the way to the roof of her home.  Keep Michelle's family in your prayers as they are currently headed to Navasota with 14 other family members that also had to be evacuated.

Atenea was fortunate that even though her family was evacuated, the water did not get into her house.

Ignacio and Flor had about a foot of water enter the house and are in the process of planning their own clean up.   I offered to come and help Ignacio tear out carpets and sheetrock but it is not possible to get into his neighborhood today.   I am going to make an attempt to go out there tomorrow.  If you think you might be able to help.  Please post on this padlet so I can let him know.

I still have a few others I have heard about that I am checking on.  I will update date as soon as possible.    (Donna, Sara, ?)

Just got home with very little water in our home. My dad and father in law say it's safe to stay here so we are. We are very lucky! So happy to be home

# data[].attributes.body
Safe and dry.

Can someone please check on Mr. Sandoval? Saw him being evacuated on the NBC nightly news. I don't have his number.

# data[].attributes.body
We were close to have water in our driveway, but remained dry and safe. Our street is now completely dry and for what I know there is access to our neighborhood. Please know that our house is open for anyone in need of a home.

# data[].attributes.body
👍 Safe and dry

# data[].attributes.body
We are all safe and dry.

# data[].attributes.body
We are grateful and thankful that we are OK and our house has not been impacted. We were completely blocked in and unable to leave due to flooding around us but the water has receded and now we have a way out of the neighborhood. The front of our neighborhood is closed off and neighbors have had to evacuate but I live at the very back and we just got water up to the sidewalk. We have one way in-and-out of our neighborhood but as of right now we are able to get in-and-out. Still keeping an eye on the levee which according to authorities around us may pose a threat but nothing yet

# data[].attributes.body
My place is good. Just out of power. Everyone stay safe.

# data[].attributes.body
Our subdivision is flooded so there is no way out or into the neighborhood. Water was up to three quarters of the driveway and reached our front steps, but luckily none through the front door. However, water seeped through the walls and onto the carpet so the master bedroom is wet. We lost electricity intermittently throughout the four days so that was extremely worrisome. We are safe and comfortable at this time so I feel very blessed. My heart goes out to each of you who have experienced hardship during this historic flooding. Please stay safe and know that you are in our thoughts. Remember to keep us posted.

I left my apartment on Eldridge parkway and came to stay with my fiancé's family in Atascocita. Currently, my apartment complex is dry, but water is getting very close. I am safe and dry in Atascocita, as everything around us is flooded.

Evacuated my house today with a couple of backpacks. My house is scheduled to flood sometime between tonight and tomorrow mid day. My house is next to the barker reservoir and the realeses of water plus the backflow from the dam is flooding my neighborhood gradually. Staying at a friend's house.

# data[].attributes.body
Safe and dry in Mission Bend. So very blessed and fortunate. My heart goes out to all who are not in their homes and not knowing what they are facing upon returning.

Went down Hwy 6 to the release area for the Barker Reservoir to take a look.  Water was over the road at the spillway so could not take a look. Have never seen water over the road at that location.

For those interested, Rees is fine.  No electricity in main building but no leaks

I've been very fortunate. Buffalo Bayou has come up almost to the back of my building, as far as I know there is not water in any units yet. There was some parking lot flooding but my car is safe. Just waiting for the water to recede around the beltway so I can get out and help. At the moment there's one way out and zero ways in. The neighborhood next to my complex and the neighborhood north of the bayou all have flooding.

# data[].attributes.headline
We had to evacuate. My neighborhood is flooded. They are rescuing people with canoes right now,  it is on the news.  KHOU news. They are saying it might take 3 weeks to return home.

We are hanging in here unfortunately, we are in for the duration. Water all around us but we have plenty of food, and power. Steve took the canue down and is on his way to the neighbors. He has a truck on dry land so everyone getting together to see who needs food from country store. We will survive

We are safe and dry! No flood or high waters.

We had to leave our home, since water was at our door and we were concerned about our kids safety. I am lucky enough because Veronica came to our rescue and despite the overwhelming experience of evacuating under the rain we are now safe and dry. Thank you to our Rees family and specially Veronica.

We are safe in Mission Bend. Have had no high water. We are thinking and praying for all those who have lost so much!

We live in Katy and are doing ok. We have tried to leave several times but there's no way in or out of our neighborhood. Water is to knee level but thankfully it has not made it inside our home. Lincoln has been a trooper and is doing just fine. We are truly blessed.

# data[].attributes.body
We live along Buffalo Bayou, just west of the Beltway. The water is close to being in some apartments, but we are fortunately on the 3rd floor. Worse case scenario, we could lose our vehicles. It depends on how much more the bayou rises, which depends on the reservoirs upstream. We are very fortunate to be on this side because in our area, the north side of the bayou is all under water. My heart is breaking for my friends and co-workers who have been displaced. Just know that your Rees family is here for you. ❤❤❤

# data[].attributes.body
Great hearing from all of you!!  We were furtunate not getting water in our house knowing next door subdivision is flooded. We are all fine hosting a friend and her her family. Lots of praying for everyone at Rees and everyone out there. God bless all of you🙏🏻🙏🏻

I've been fortunate to stay dry and have power in my apt near Weslayan and Alabama.   Was impossible to reach Megan and Matthew who were with their dad, Rob.  Our house is in BraesHeights and every street was a river with many houses flooding.  Our house came close to flooding with water reaching the door threshold but never going in.   With the water receding for a short while yesterday, I was able to pick up my babies from Rob;s house.  Its a very scary feeling being separated from your kids at a time like this.   Trying to keep things for them as normal as possible.  Glad I don't have cable for them to watch.  Just Netflix movies.

Thinking of all of you. Please keep us updated using this Padlet throughout the next few days, add pictures or video if you want.

I am safe in Cypress near Fry Road and 290 with my good friend Ashley. My apartment borders the Addicks Reservoir but when I called yesterday it was still safe. Hoping the release of water stays away from my place. Fry Road and surrounding areas in Cypress are completely flooded so not sure when I'll make it back to my apartment off Highway 6 and I-10

Thankfully we are safe and dry here! We were flooded in the neighborhood for the past couple days but luckily it didn't get into the house. We have a huge bayou directly behind my backyard fence which came up almost to the fence yesterday but thankfully went down a bit today. So no flooding or damage from their either.

We are ok. Flooded in the neighborhood but water seems to be receding. Water up to the driveway. Just hoping the levee holds and it stops raining.
