7.9 inches in Newport. The streets in Newport are under water (about 4ft or better) and some homes may be fighting off the rising water. The Mayor said she was in deep water on Houston Ave. as well as the old part of town. The creek is rising because of the 6 inches received in Friendswood. Seems like Galveston is getting the tornadoes. While we had some very strong winds, I do not believe we had any tornadoes. Must get back to what I was doing... What is your storm story?
