Thunderstorms in the Houston area on Tuesday left behind flooded roadways and a possible house fire at the oldest house in Dickinson.
The rain fell quickly surprising several motorists. Roughly three inches of rain soaked areas south of Humble in about an hour."It’s unbelievable you know," said Jose Medina. "It took just a couple of minutes, and it got flooded quick."
According to Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez, deputies responded to multiple flooding incidents. One involving a wheelchair user stuck in rising water and another where several motorists were stranded on a flooded roadway. "The water, I couldn’t see it," said Jonathan Garcia, a stranded motorist. "I was driving straight, and I didn’t see the water. [My car] just turned off."
