Dammit, what a year. A buddy of mine is flying into Texas tomorrow
for an outdoor music festival in Austin. More concerned about Houston,
though. We don't need a second major city devastated.

How do you think those evacuees from New Orleans feel, you know the ones that were relocated to Houston! Got to feel for them for sure. I wish everyone well.

Local weather predicting 50-70 mile an hour wind, rain and tornados on Saturday in San Antonio 160 miles from the coast and it may be worse. It looks bad. Say a prayer for those down the coast who get left behind.

I fail to see the logic in that. I wish no harm to anyone but lets look at this with an open mind people. We are happy that it's going to wipe out a big chunk of Texas? I think it would be better to hit an already vacant area? Of course this is JMO.

Bryan, We finally agree on something.

I posted the same desire yesterday over at TexasRub board and got no comment. Unfortunately this B%&ch Rita is not turning north till she gets to Texas. Looks like we will be 'Q'n for Rita victims very soon instead of Katrina victims.

Rains are picking up pretty good, as is the wind, here in shreveport/bossier. i'll update our hurricane force (CAT 1) winds when they get here.

I hope I tied everything down...... We are also expecting over 20" of rain. This will obviously flood the red River and some of Shreveport/bossier.

I'll pipe in when I get a chance.

I'll just bet you will!
