Posting a live traffic camera site for the entire Houston area/not what you'd expect

Great thread! I was NOT surprised. I watched all the footage and never saw anything deeper than up to people's knees in street flooding.

Not just the media, but average joes and jills online uploads of their neighborhoods.
It seems to have been highly selective flooding.
Maybe some was footage from previous floods.
I do know that I caught KHOU using looped footage when it was claiming "LIVE".

There is some high strangeness going on that in no way indicated there was anything remotely like 50" of rain falling on that city. It would be flooded. But, oddly, the city never was.

I'll keep bumping this for you, OP.

It seems like some of these were in the area of where they showed raging flood waters. Was it photoshop of a interstate sign in a ocean pic?

I really don't know. But, it looks like business, as usual in the city of Houston. Looks like some areas didn't even skip a beat.

To put things into more perspective:


The Houston Greater Metropolitan Area has more than 6.5 million people.


During the height of the flooding there were about 300,000+ people without power.

There were 400 cell phone towers down out of 7500.

There were about 9,000 in shelters.


From ALL sources there were 9 to 10 thousand rescued.


This is out of a population of 6.5 million.


They showed flooded neighborhoods.


Harris County Flood Control District updated earlier notifications from the Army Corps of Engineers about controlled releases of two Harris County-area reservoirs to warn neighboring residents that their homes could be flooded.

District meteorologist Jeff Lindner says residents of neighborhoods surrounding the Addicks Reservoir and Barker Reservoir could be affected initially with street flooding, but residents' homes could be flooded as well.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers had said earlier Sunday that they would begin releasing water from the reservoirs early Monday to control the flooding along Buffalo Bayou downstream to downtown Houston and the Houston Ship Channel.

The Harris County Office of Emergency Management said residents around the reservoirs should pack their cars with what they want to bring but not to until daybreak to leave as the rain continues to fall.


In other words the extreme flooding that they keep showing, with water up to the top of doorways, was due to the controlled release of reservoir waters into a nearby residential area.

Here is a video of Houston flooding from March 2016.

More than a year ago.


Check it out.

Which one has the flood? They seem okay, the ones I viewed.

Where's the water?

Here's another one from Houston Flood of 2016: Showing huge highway covered in water:

Anyone actually IN Houston that wants to weigh in?

Not sure what the point is, but yes it flooded bad in many areas. Some not as much. My house was high and dry the whole time, but I know others just down the road that were flooded.

There is nothing going on there ffs...

5*

Yeah, looks the same.
And yet that was not with an alleged, 50" of rain falling over a 200 mile radius. That would cause unimaginable flooding.
Yet, today, you watch flyover videos and I don't see the evidence of that much rain. That's all I'm saying.

Maybe they are not showing flyovers of those areas. Wherever they are supposed to be.

Here's one you have to see.


Does it look familiar?



It is allegedly an entirely flooded Houston from drone footage, arial view.



This is from may of 2015......check it out.

Well, that's weird. Did you get 50 inches of rain at YOUR house? Because the radars "showed" that much fell but...

A friend loaded up his pontoon boat and supplies, headed to Houston, after many hours driving around with police was told to go home, he wasn't needed. They restricted the areas he could see.

Point being, if 50 inches of rain fell in that one area surrounding Houston, NOBODY would be high and dry the whole time, not even you. Do you understand that?

Same shit different day.

This is probably why GLP doesn't show in Google anymore, they probably figured their sensationalized storm would be outed.

I can speak for the rest of us in Houston by saying that if you support the OPs comments, you, like the OP, are a stupid piece of shit.

This is curious, I am so glad that the water is gone from these areas, but damn, how did it drain so quickly and where did it go.

At least two of my Castle Clash guildmates in two guilds I'm in they were talking up it all up when the hurricane was here in Texas. One was in the Woodlands saying that there was alot of flooding everywhere around him, but he and his family were on high ground so it was all good. Another is near Houston and he was saying something about massive flooding everywhere, in one of the power outages area, and barely able to do much of anything out there. So I don't know what the heck was going on. For all I know they live in residential areas where those water releases happened.

I know Fox News/ABC News both kept showing a completely flooded highway that turned into a large river while it was near white out conditions days ago. That was jaw dropping to see actually. So apparently it's all coming out into the open that many, many power players were lying to the public about the Hurricane Harvey damages. The Mayor of Houston literally murders alot of people just to make our POS Governor look like a fool. Well the murders were the end result of the Mayor not making the proper calls when she had the time and abilities to do so.

I'm not posting an opinion. People can believe what they choose to believe.


I'm only posting live traffic cameras allegedly showing the ENTIRE Houston area and there is virtually no water in evidence.


I'm also posting old You Tube videos from a year and two years ago showing the same kind of "flooding" in Houston at those times.


One can only assume that Houston floods...a lot... and that this particular story has been inflated to the point of absurdity.


Also, how is it that if there are 6.5+ million people only 9,000 needed to be rescued if it was as bad as they claimed that it was?


Do you know that there are 5,000 homeless people on the streets of Houston every day?


Glad they all got a bed.

he said the roads on traffic cam are not flooded. and you cant nominate yourself to speak for all houston, juat tell us how much water there is

Yeah, what's with that?

Did you ever think that maybe there really aren't many people who aren't part of the bullshit that are left in the world, including the people on this site?


No one is going to tell the truth because the small number left is in on the deception.

Isn't it possible that Houston flooded 'at some time' and ALL of the footage is from the same flood?

I'm going to make a big prediction....here it is GLPers....




I'm going way out on a limb and guess they stop showing real time traffic cams on the internet entirely....and very soon.

I saw one popular picture from the flood where a black man and a woman were carrying two small children.


I saw it several times.


The next time I saw it the black man was carrying a DOG.


It's all bullshit.

I was barely paying attention to the MSM stuff really. So I guess so, OP. I don't doubt many, if not all of the low laying areas such as what Trinity said the flood plains all flooded out during the hurricane. I didn't think Houston would become Water World.

LYING signs and wonders...?

lying...false....we believe what people tell us and form an image in our minds that can then lead us....

Oh yea, Trinity...
