Near the Old River Channel
Old River-Winfree is a small city east of Mont Belvieu, named for the Old River channel nearby. On flat, low ground, heavy rain drains slowly, and big storms can leave water standing for days. Power outages after storms are a recurring problem out here. If the power's out, a wet house gets more humid every hour, and drying waits on the grid or a generator safely outside.
