To all the Texas briefers in here; I'm hearing on the news that it will probably be a Cat 3 and is expected to stall and dump a ton of rain as well.  This is going to be quite a nasty hurricane.  Please board up and take cover. I'll be praying for ya'll.

@Sanguine , some of the nicest people I've met on here are Texans.

Aw, thank you, Freya!

@Bigun, I'm guessing that you aren't in the mandatory evacuation area?  Has it started raining yet?

Y'all do realize that no matter how bad this turns out to be (and I pray it's only a tiny fraction of what's predicted), it won't get anywhere near the attention of Sandy or any other disaster that might occur on the East Coast or even the West Coast. This is only Texas, and a red state at that. None of the elite media sources are that interested in investing a bunch of money to cover tragedies that happen in flyover country. If someone told them they could probably locate some illegal aliens victimized by the storm, they'd probably high-tail it down here and fan out to find them.

???  This is going to be a major hurricane; they are already shutting down the refineries. We've been hearing about this hurricane here in Florida for hours. If it hits like predicted (and I a praying that it does not) it will affect the economy, so I don't see how it wouldn't be a major news story.

@Sanguine

Definately not in any evacuation zones and never will be.  When I get  water in my house from flooding there will be millions of folks swimming  south of me.  Few sprinkels her this afternoon but thats all.   It's coming.

   I skipped on the water and doubled up on the Liquor and beer, @Sanguine
   My location is similar to @Bigun If I flood, Everyone else washed away hours ago.

Still in the 10-15 inch range here too.  Benchmark for my present area was 24 inches back in 1994.  Was fine with that rain, so so good so far.

They updated again and we are now 20~25".

My location is way up too.  But, it might be hard to get around for a bit.  I remember after one hurricane, we evacuated and it was a week before the water went down enough to get home.

You are a smart lady!  You can get wasted on the wine  tomorrow night, wake up sometime the next day and down a half gallon of water and be gone again. 

Don't ask me how I  know that! Just take my word for it! :laugh:

Is anyone directly in the path? We'd really like to keep tabs on y'all if at all possible.

I saw some good advice in an interview with Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick this evening. Be sure you monitor the storm closely. Don't wake up in the morning and assume the forecast will be the same as it was when you went to bed. Lots of people were stunned by the strengthening of Ike overnight and had to make a last-minute decision to leave. That storm surge shocked us. Even those of us who know how conditions can change so radically.
