Incorporate increasing rainfall forecasts into flooding and drainage protection plans
Severe flood events since Ike in 2008...
In less than a 10 year span, from Ike in 2008 to Harvey in 2017, our region experienced 6 major flooding events
The FEMA national flood hazard viewer allows you to enter your info (put your street address and zip) to see the 100 year and 500 year flood plains near you. Note however that FEMA maps are only updated through your county government and Montgomery County has declined to update their maps. The process to update Harris County FEMA maps has started.
If we don't improve existing floodways, there will be more flooding.
