Flash Flood Alley PBS Movie

This movie follows the lives of five families who rebuild after the great Central Texas flood of 1998. Their stories unfold to show how the rapidly growing Central Texas corridor is the most flash-flood prone area in North America yet few know of the dangers or how to prepare. We see the characters' fate in a massive repeat flood in 2002. Flash Flood Alley has aired extensively on Texas PBS affiliates since the Spring of 2005.

Nominated for a Lone Star Emmy and a National Science Acadamy Award in 2006
