you are going to look like a massive cunt for stealing anything that you don't need to survive. stealing shoes is probably fine because wet feet can kill you Bush is blamed for Katrina only because he was a white knight who knew giving the people someone to hate that wasn't their local government would be easier on them he gave the state everything they needed and the democrats rejected it Trump is way better at manipulating th3 media, if they try to pin this on him then they are fucked

ADDICKS RESERVOIR MIGHT BURST!
>The dams, owned and operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, were completed in 1945 and 1948 respectively to protect downtown Houston from catastrophic flooding by blocking some of the water that would otherwise come gushing down Buffalo Bayou, increasing the flooding of the already overwhelmed waterway running through the heart of Houston.
>These systems of dams and reservoirs function as dry reservoirs, meaning the dams stay wide open and water is allowed to flow freely until the heavier rains roll in, according to the Corps. The city has a system of highly sensitive flood gauges and once those gauges hit "critical levels" the dam safety officer orders the floodgates closed and the dams begin top fill up.
>The thing is, in 2009 the dams were dubbed to be in "extremely high risk of catastrophic failure". Since then the Corps has taken bandaid approaches, including filters to control seepage, more lighting and an emergency power system, to prevent a full-on collapse of either dam while waiting on the slow process of getting more permanent and expensive measures put in place, as the Houston Press has previously reported.
What the fuck? I'm at 45 and holzwarth and it hasn't stopped at all. We only had a brief period from 6-7 of light rain.

so this means the surface area of the water is way bigger, but it's not anywhere near close to the top of the reservoir?
Jack Foster
Looks legit. Wondering why they are releasing water at such low capacity levels. I have seen it mentioned that it was at very high risk for critical failure.
Christopher Scott
the big unknown variable is the rates of inflow and outflow. USGS might have them labelled for another site. their level is actually quite a bit higher than the state data, feds are probably more accurate. will plot new chart shortly.
Elijah Lopez
What if, Houston is destroyed permanently?
Benjamin Morris
Then Houston will have a problem.
Brandon Green
It is also a very old dam that may have been assessed to be at risk at even low capacity levels.

Recent Corps of Engineers info on Addicks Resevoir:
When we combined the risks associated with these two concerns with the potential consequences to the Houston metropolitan area should there be a failure, Addicks and Barker were designated as “extremely high risk”. It is important to know that Addicks and Barker dams are not in imminent danger of failing. These two dams form reservoirs that are dry much of the time. They are continuously monitored by a full-time staff to ensure their structural integrity. But, the fact that the Houston metropolitan area is the nation’s fourth largest population center is a primary concern. Any dam safety issues at Addicks and Barker could have a far greater impact due to the magnitude of people and property downstream, as opposed to other dams around the country in rural or low-population density areas. Having our Addicks and Barker dams designated as “extremely high risk” is a big step toward increasing their safety. This designation moves them up to the front of the line for funding for repairs and studies, and all actions required for these two dams will be expedited.

It'll be heavily crippled, but it won't be 100% destroyed. Just look at Nola, how it's still around now.
