Did hear of a friend who lost two houses in BC. a text message said "my houses are gone. bye bye bc."

A friend in Groves said he made it but it got real real bad

Thank you.  My prayers are with everyone, especially Bridge City.  Sound like Bridge City got the worst of it.

Wakesford park in North Vidor is reporting many roofs missing. An OST is under water. Remember guys this is the info coming to us by emergency contact. We havent seen this with our eyes. We are hunkered down in the EOC. These reports are legit though.

WOW!  This indian is praying for you good folks over across the bridge!  Please, be safe.  From the last I heard, Pt. Neches/Groves is intact, with little or no damage. God Bless you!

In viewer e-mails to KFDM there were reports of 2ft of water in a few houses in the Shadowdale area (North of Roundbunch, west of HWY 408). Also, 4ft of water in houses off of East Roundbunch; Dugas addition badly flooded; A few places off of Ferry badly flooded. Keep in mind that this is from viewer emails, not official info.

That would put you just a few streets west of Shadowdale, but no way of knowing for sure. You should check out the live stream at KFDM.com. They have been talking a lot about Orange County.
