GOOD THING SPRING BRANCH HAD ALL THAT FLOODING LAST MONTH 
A press release from the city notes that last month’s flooding may actually make the chemical spill caused by yesterday’s warehouse fire significantly less of a problem for the waterways around Spring Branch: “Fortunately, recent heavy rainfall and flooding has caused high waters in our creeks and bayous. This will assist in diluting the pesticide contaminates and minimize its impact.” Harris County Flood Control District says the areas of Spring Branch creek marked in the map above (from the site of the fire to the creek’s junction with Buffalo Bayou) should be avoided.

While this could be a devastating environmental event, on the bright side hopefully this means less mosquitos?
Pesticide contaminated water? Sounds like a win-win to me.
You see, two wrongs do make a right.
Wait, what?
