Blast,
 Is the water up over I-45 where it passes over the bayous?  I may have to come that way in the morning.  Last major flood I remember I seeing the water OVER the guard rails on the bridges.

"but many off-ramps and underpasses are under water."
 yep, that's what I'm talking about.

No, I-45 itself is only flooded just south of The Woodlands, but many off-ramps and underpasses are under water. 
 -Blast
So I-45 is closed????  I really don't want to come to Houston via Austin! This may just be the excuse I was looking for to not have to come that way.  It was business not fun.
