My house was over 3 feet above the top level of the Addicks reservoir max level. The north south street running along the stream goes from 113 feet to 108 feet. The water topped out just under 110 feet.

All the houses in the photos, none flooded. Just the guard shack at the south entrance. The neighborhood just south of us, 30% of 700 homes flooded. The neighbor just east of there, 16 survived out of over 500.
