This reporter removing things for safety of drivers is so very nice what a good person
Ted Oberg has been with ABC-13 for decades and is a highly respected reporter in Houston.
@@spartan7911 I can see why
Stop pollution America.
Ted deserves a promotion👍
What a kind and thoughtful reporter that Ted is! When he pulled that 2x4 out I thought.... Humanity....still human in some places ❤ praying for y'all from GA!
How Ted going to just open somebody car door like that 😂 even after seeing they were on the phone 😂
Sam Reynolds thank you but I wanted to sound country 🥴😂
Sam Reynolds o wow, you seem angry 😂 your conversation is so vapid (look it up) and if that's you in your profile picture, im disgusted at the fact that the US military accepted you into the service. #NoThanksForYourService #RACIST #ForNoReason P.S. please become a better person
Sam Reynolds I called you a racist because you insinuated that all black parents don't teach their kids. Who are you to conclude that. You do not know me nor my family. I can say the same thing about you and your family. If you look in the news across the country, every single mass shooting is performed by somebody raised in a caucasian home. What are your thoughts about that? To give you more clarity about my home, my mother is a traveling Respiratory Therapist and my father is a Chemical Engineer. They both graduated from Clemson and I graduated from VCU with a degree in Anthropology with a minor in physics. I am currently in graduate school to get my PhD in Proton Radiation Therapy. I am 25 years old you are not my parent and do not need to correct me on anything. I've never lived in the projects but I see you grew up in the trailer park. And I'm too much of an intellectual to dumb myself down to enter the "Marine Corps". Go run a couple miles and carry a gun while research and treat cancer. ✌🏽
Sam Reynolds why did you reply in the first place if you obviously against black people 🧐yeah yeah move around
@@AyeYoReef You have absolutely nothing to prove to this guy man keep it moving. You can't help that kind of ignorance, stupidity and hate.
Ted good reporting buddy. Blessings peace and love to all!!!
Ted is a great reporter!
Best live shot I've seen since I retired! (lol) Seriously, very good work. Ted's worth six-figures at least.
@Escape From Zombie Island I feel like you're insane, sir. Weather is made by G-d, sometimes controlled by HaSatan. However, I do agree that TV news is mostly propaganda. I simply applaud that guy for doing a great job of making a mundane assignment interesting for the viewers, info and entertainment all in one. The reference to 6-figs is a joke cause only the anchors get that much. (if they're good) Thanks for reading.
@Escape From Zombie Island I think you must be insane, sir. Only G-d makes the weather and sometimes allows HaSatan to manipulate it. This reporter deserves kudos for the job he did, info and entertainment all in one package, and live too! The reference to 6-figs is mostly a joke 'cause only the anchors make that much. (if they're good)
Stop pollution America.
Sitting there for 45 minutes with their engine running, lights, and windshield wipers going? that's about as stupid as can be
I mean where are u going to go dumb fuck
I gotta pee
Great reporting!
Caney Creek??? Looks more like Mississippi River!!!
Always watch late night news if just for weather report. Make a Quality choice for self and family. Jobs will always just replace you and move on. Do not worship a job remember you can be replaced. All money is not good money if life threatened.
and just how much water is being held on the main road by the concrete barriers .... design people ...DESIGN !
Ted...is the man!
This is great reporting.
You need a pay raise Ted!!!
What a great reporter!!!!!!
i wonder if the highway department needs to hire engineers that can plot river rise to redesign roads. perhaps using precast culverts that are an upside down triangle shape.. so the higher the water rises the more open area is available. this also reduces clogs.
It's called flash flooding..
@@dawnkenney8959 for clouds to become rain it requires a particle of dust or smoke the bigger the particle the harder the rain. Look careful carefully at smoke patterns from California from the fires and you'll find a giant correlation
Thank you 👍 reporter Man for moving that dift wood , blessings to you and your Crew 🙏🙏🇧🇧
Praying that the waters level down on the highways so people can make it home or to a safe place it’s scary to see and to be in this weather the long hours of waiting for a sign of relief is exhausting you guys hang in there n be careful
It seems like this happens frequently now, year after year
It's almost like the climate is.... changing? 🤔
@@DynamoGooner I know, that's something else😒
Of course, and it's going to get worse. The Bible is "fullfilling". Read Matthew chapter 23 and 24!! This is NOT man-made!!!!
Great 👍🏼 news anchor 💯‼️...
After Harvey I bailed to Dallas. This is going to be a normal thing for Houston
Hopefully not :/
God bless everyone dealing With all that water thank you lord God bless everyone ❤❤❤
The guy in the red pickup to the reporter: "I dont believe in watching news" 😆
Nice job by Ted.
He did a great job
its stupid for so many ppl to be out in this weather. Stupidity beyond my mind can comprehend. I understand the guy in the SUV rescuing his worker. But everyone elseshoudl have stayed in their home.
Nah man, this is fake news.
No its its not. They told us the rain would hit hard on Wednesday. It didn't. It rained and stopped. The sun even came out. Didn't even rain hard at that. This didn't even start until the afternoon on Thursday. So what would you do if you were told to prepare for one day and nothing happened. And on the day it actually happens you're already at work. Stop judging people unless you know.
Lol this comment is "stupidity beyond my mind can comprehend". I don't know what line of work you're in, but most people go to work around 9AM or earlier, and the flash flooding started around 11am. I also love how one guy in a city with over a million people gets a pass for saving his "stupid" worker, but the rest of us are dumb for going to work like usual. 😆 keep living that sweet judgemental life, buddy. Must be nice to be so smart. Do you also shout at the homeless? "You should have just stayed at home!!!!"
mary poppins he also doesn't realize how hard and fast that rain came down. I work at that Walmart. I work from 10 pm to 7 am and before I could come home I was flooded out of my subdivision. I even tried some back roads and where way to flooded to pass.So I was stuck at a road side gas station for 9 hrs coming over a night shift. Which totally sucked. I believe New Caney got 20 inches of rain that day. It rained more in one day that the 2 to 3 days when Harvey hit us.
'
aww beautifully natural heavy rain storm weather in the fall season...
need more rainy rainy in here los angeles area to the mountain
I like this reporter
oh my goshhhh to much or nothing we dont have rain here in charlstone WEST VERGINIA for about a month i think to hot and dry
How much for a fill up at the flooded gas station?
Houston is a bowl . People smart to abandon cars. At least they not getting washed away.
It's not New Orleans,A bowl would mean your below sea level which Houston is not
domb NOLA is below sea level. They flood because of seawall and hurricanes, levees fail. Houston is above sea level and mostly cemented water cannot get to the ground until overflows and runs off to find ground (dirt) to absorb it. Bowl is hard and has a lip for overflow, so slowly it fills up then eventually flows over finds ground and runs off to be absorbed.
@@joanridgeway3674 well that's not how Houston drainage works
@@UrMom-jb7vl well obviously Houston drainage dont work.
Houston has poured to much cement and not enough drains. So it fills up, overflows and finds ground to absorb it. Takes time cause the few drains they have get blocked with debris and trash making it backup.
Harvey. Round 2
If you're going to build a road. Build a ditch first...
Great reporter and Great cameraman !
That guy looks just like Arsinio Hall.. 🤗👍🏻
Lmmfao it's Arsenio Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
OMG WHAT
😲Man i just freaked tf out....but then i checked the date on this video. I thought this was the water still flowing from the water main break 2 days ago here (2/27) in Houston.
Well it's time to get a bigg ass pickup truck now. Lol.
Great coverage
This is inane. Our climate system is breaking down. Look at what climate chaos is doing to industrialized nations already at 1C. Tropic depressions are unleashing ungodly amounts of rain and Hurricane are blasting Islands off the face of the planet.
Damn Planet X is so mean
Glad my Grand mother taught me to NEVER UNDER ESTIMATE MOTHER NATURE. 🌊
7:40 my home completely under water. 🏕
Weather modification in action.
xc5647321 xc5647321 Man-made & unnatural weather modification. Educate yourself. At least it could be used to prevent such disasters or steer them elsewhere, but they can't both cause it and resolve it. Nothing new, just not covered daily on CNN, who wants us to still believe that we are T the mercy of the weather as their controllers control it.
who causes it in Pakistan, in Mozambique, in Japan, in the Bahamas, in England, in New Hampshire, in all of these places where these slow moving dumping storms have been happening in the last 10 or 20 years? The oceans are a huge reservoir of water that gets raised into the atmosphere by heat and gets dumped periodically. IT is really hard to imagine anyone being able to control that worldwide.
HEY, THEY HAVE 'GEEK SQUAD' DOWN IN TEXAS?...SAW A 'GEEK SQUAD' VAN ON THAT ROAD THAT TED WALKED PAST...WE HAVE 'GEEK SQUAD' UP HERE IN VANCOUVER, CANADA TOO...;)
Amen !
All that from rain??? No broken levies or overflowing rivers or anything? My goodness!
Creeks are known to rise with a lot of rainfall........
No wonder why California has gotten so expensive, ain't no body got time for that kind of weather.
J_sue1-6CA Hernandez you would think but houston population keeps going up and they keep building leaving no where for the water to go. This happens like 2-3 times a year now
Reporter: this man is busy on the phone *proceeds to open door without asking*
Toe Knee
He knew his name before he approached the car so I’m guessing he did a pre interview with him letting him know they were going to talk with him.
I’m so glad I didn’t move there I feel for people that couldn’t get out in time.
Not everywhere floods, i didn't
Asphalt and concrete does not absorb any water. Pump it to Big Spring Texas. Good ole Ted Olberg.
Damn he has on waterproof pants!
I like it
And paired them with ankle boots. He must like that squishy feeling inside :D
Now they're going to try Banning the weather for this.
Wish we had reporter like this. Ctx sucks...
oh my goody ness.
Ya but where is this?
is the water going into the city
State and City Lraders need to give the right statement .That they will not or can't fixs the promble of flooding. The Army Engineers have know this for years.Its about money when disasster happen .Houston and surrounding areas are below sea leave. Look around you water only flow where its low areas.
M
OMG the cars will be stalling out
Even how powerful and rich a country is......but it can never hold back a raging water floods!!🙄😯oh my God....its all in Gods hand....
This reporter is good.
Climate chaos - get used to it. Bye-bye Holocene! Welcome to the Anthropocene! My advice - if you live along the southern coast, you should probably move before you (a) don't have a house or (b) property/home prices go to $0.
You're right. I've never wanted to live near "beaches, oceans, large rivers, because they overflow, and the water has to go somewhere!!
3 1/2 hours away it sprinkled for maybe 30 seconds... smfh
HistoryHunter actually if you where about 30 miles west of the storm it didn't even flood or rain if any. Very strange storm for sure.
It's fall and a wee bit rain with puddles stops Texas. Texas is sinking - literally.
Aren't these man made storms something? Yea that's what I said.
This Is Horrible
Like the water in Noah's days, God saved him in the Ark and Lot, before he rained down upon the City, he removed them and placed them in safety. Praise the Lord, these sign's of his coming and it's getting closer.
Maybe they ran out of gas or had to use the restroom
4:49 .... a lesson from last flood would have told them to put a slipway right (behind )where this reporter is standing
“I don’t believe in watching news” 😭
The guy with the tent doesnt have much to replace
I drive a vehical that can go threw water that is about 3 and half feet no problem I whould of just driven around them
Stupid business owners let your employees off due to improbabiliy of drow9 in high water
Stupid people or Stupid politicians not doing anything to address Climate change, this is only gong to get worse. People cannot survive as these storms will only occur more often and become more intense.
WAW .Nat good at all my God.MAS SESTRAKCHON ON ALL HUSTEONANS.
3 weeks and counting, house marinated in knee-deep sewage for some 18 hours... no help out here in Plum Grove whatsoever! Texans do NOT help Texans, clearly! :-|
Houston, you have more problems
I gotta pee!
They probably ran out of gas.
“I DONT WATCH THE NEWS.” Lmao. 😂 Fake News. At least this is real. Hope they are okay.
The guy said "Allegators"
Grand solar minimum ☀️ it's not you, it's not co2 it's THE SUN ☀️☀️☀️☀️🙌🏿
am still wating for america to pay me my money now i am so sorry i cant help at all
cars with no people...google cars love water
Most high is cleaning the land for his chosen one's to come back home to roots.
If you have to pee!
They seem too laughable..... SMH
No where in this story does it say what happed to cause the flood oh I know there was heavy rain but still
in such a developed Nation episodes like this should be a rarity surely Not the Norm ,
Did a river burst its banks if so have the US gov' build defences
Irish Citizen
It is impossible to do. Lots of heavy rain combined with creeks and rivers overtopping their banks. There's no way to hold back hundreds of trillions of gallons of water. No weir, levy or wall will work on it when it is over a widespread area like that.
its hurricane season- it brings in tons of rain and Houston is right on the gulf. Texas get lots of rain in certain areas.
Traks aR NAT bouts .they are no good on wator
A homeless man's tent floods, so he goes to help stranded motorists.
@Aaron Boone I'm from here.
*_I don’t believe in watching news_*
_B R U H_
I have a solution .
2:16 They always get some clown like this on most new reports...attention-seeker who thinks he'll look "important" if he acts like he's busy.
"i don' believe in watching news, 'grin stupidly,' it causin' a lot a trouble right now," as he sit's in ignorance, champion of the 4 hour wait.
news only reports trouble, fools cause it.
So there is no God? Better think again. Think real hard.
texas get out of sin
Like where u live there is no sin?
I think your thinking of las vegas. Texas is a very christian state.
