HOUSTON (CW39) – Though most of the inner city rain is gone, with Beta moving east, many areas remain under water. The “Bayou City” flooded, and every bayou was impacted in our area. The way it works: Bayous have to recede before neighborhoods do. Bayous, including Greens Bayou, have yet to recede, impacting drivers this morning.
