Sugar Land received 12 inches of rain, causing widespread flooding.

According to Chron.com, the National Weather Service reported 12 inches of rainfall in Sugar Land Tuesday and Wednesday, and some roads are still impassable.

Neighbors in the Colony Bend neighborhood “said that no homes got flooded, but cars were consumed by the high waters and many people were left stranded.” ‘They were concerned by how slowly the water was draining — almost as if it wasn’t draining at all.”

“High water vehicles patrolled the streets of Sugar Land, transporting people who were left stranded overnight to drier areas like First Colony Mall.”

KPRC reports that “the city reports its storm drains are over capacity and more than 100 vehicles were abandoned overnight.” “The overnight rainfall forced several drivers to park their vehicles in the middle of the street. Some drivers even had to spend the night in their cars.”
