    I-10 is closed west bound at Jensen. At 5 am this morning a big rig went out of control and crashed into a concrete bridge support. The driver was killed and there has been no name released. All we know at this time is it was a woman driver in her 40s. The local news has ended and I could not tell the color of the tractor nor a name on the load. It was dark and the local news was being held back. We have a major problem in the Gulf Coast area, we are expecting flooding. Some areas are expected to get 7 inches of rain today. If you are thinking about coming into the Houston area today, check the local radio station. KTRH at 740 am has updates very often. It is a talk radio station, but they can sort of give you an idea of the road conditions.

    Another thing i saw on the news. Reroute through 59 and go through lyons street then you can catch I-10 katy. And the rain is coming down 90% chance today.
