A 13 year resident of Houston describes her experience in Hurricane Harvey --- and what she's learned from Hurricane Allison, Hurricane Rita, Hurricane Ike, and the May 2016 floods....a description of Houston's water problems with the "forced" Addicks & Barker Reservoirs flooding, and the "forced" Lake Conroe and Lake Houston flooding, during Hurricane Harvey. Also addressed are floodplain maps, disclosure when buying/renting, water "authorities" and their power. Passing of the blame, too much development, neighbors flooding neighbors, misinformation from government agencies, etc. Part II discusses 22 steps for Houston and the greater Houston area (from Lake Conroe to Galveston) to take to protect against another Hurricane Harvey.
