What if Houston were evacuating when this hit? It was impossible to move that many people even in a week.

1. They could've moved the lower lying areas first, there's a plan for this but KGOP nut case governor

... didn't want to sign on to it

4. What state do you live in?

Curious.

5. Texas

2. Resulting in a gigantic parking lot of floating cars - and bodies

Flash flooding happens fast

3. Plus, consider the fact that cars generally don't float.

But bodies generally do, if they manage to float out of their sunken automobiles, that is.

Shelter in place? Or evacuate?

Anyway that one looks at it, it's going to be a clusterfuck.

6. Consider how many elderly and disabled would have

been trapped on the roads.

And then there are the people without transportation.

Where does everyone stay? Church recreation centers can't handle them all. Military bases would be needed to house people.

It's always easy for some armchair quarterback to second guess everyone'decisions.

BTW, a lot of people won't evacuate because of horrible previous experiences.
