Harvey for the Rest of Us

This is the rainfall accumulation prediction for now through Sunday (8/31/2017 thru 9/3/2017).

For the folks in Texas and Louisiana, the difficulties are just beginning.

Thanks SmokesAhoy, I am still doing the grow your own my friend. I will need to replenish next growing season after a couple 3 years off. I still have plenty but still purchase some higher quality from Don and Larry on occasion.

Many people are focused on the staggering figure of 40,000 homes lost, but another number also deserves close scrutiny: The flooding destroyed as many as a million cars in the Houston metro area.

If you might be purchasing a used car (anywhere in the US) over the next year, beware of flood-damaged vehicles with fraudulent papers. Check any prospective used car buy with a report on the specific vehicle at https://www.carfax.com/
