There’s been some severe flooding across Texas in the last few days. In the video below, you can see the Hwy 635 Dallas freeway, where some cars have been abandoned after 1.5 to 4 inches of rain fell in just three hours! A bridge over Atkins Creek on FM-1097 near Montgomery also completely collapsed due to the heavy rains. Local officials are working hard to repair the damage, but it looks challenging with more rain on the way. This is a reminder of the importance of water resources infrastructure for our communities and the vital work of civil engineers. From Technical Hires: stay safe out there, follow local updates, and avoid areas that have been severely impacted if possible!
