AM....
We look to be on the
cleaner side of the storm. Fort Bend is expected to see winds up to
75mph.
Traffic is getting better out there. We
have decided to ride out the storm here. Going to East Texas is not a good
idea. They have a high frequency of tornadoes and it takes a long time to
get things going again.
Currently the wind is calm to very light
breeze occasionally. The sun is out and light cirrus clouds are in the
air.
I'm about to tear down this computer to
keep it safe. I'll post again as soon as power and the computer are back up and
running.
We are concerned about my Aunt Marie and
cousin Peggy who are in the direct path of the storm. Contacting anyone is
madness as the cell phone lines are maxed out.
I've been thinking...the hurricane is
coming in tonight. We know its headed this general direction. That's why
people started evacuating as early as Wednesday. In 1900 the people of
Galveston didn't know it was coming. They had only a few reports. The
weather did not indicate anything coming, except the falling pressure and
possibly cirrus clouds, like what we are seeing.
