Torrential overnight rains soaked an already waterlogged Houston last night, leaving motorists stranded across the region. Firefighters have made numerous rescues as morning commuters unwittingly drove into the rain. Soak up our mega-gallery below.
Some parts of Houston experienced 8-to-10 inches of rain overnight, on top of rain from two weeks of severe storms. Zerin Dube, at Speed:Sport:Life, was trapped in his house this morning as his driveway filled with water.
Cars, trucks, vans, and even a few police cars are floating around underneath the highways. Most major interstates are above water, but drivers exiting managed to plow right into the flooded feeder roads. It's a good day to own a monster truck with a snorkel. You still look like a jerk, but you're a dry jerk.
