Folks

Let us know if you guys need anything

Maybe we can FedEx things to those of our friends affected.

I need prayers that my trees hold up. I needed all of them thinned, but especially the big one in the front yard. Tree trimming is costly, so I can't get that done. I've been holding my breath for a couple of years, but it looks like my luck has finally run out. Bummer. I don't want to lose my trees, and I really don't want to lose them + my roof (and perhaps my or my dogs' lives). The high winds and the wet ground are making me nervous. Please pray that they'll hold on.

Landfall is beginning now in Rockport.
(Per KTRK TV - Houston)

Landfall already?  Isn't that about six hours earlier than expected?

   Our City Council (NB,TX) is going to pay $250,000 to clean the rivers up at the conclusion of this season, which is theoretically over, anyway. Next weekend, Labor Day will find very muddy rivers and mosquitos to rival Florida.

   My Point: The River is about to get a natural cleaning that it doesn't receive, often enough.

What kind of trees?  Some are better at staying upright than others.

@Freya I love you but that storm wouldn't even have made the news had it happened in Texas.  Nothing compared to what is currently headed for Texas. The difference is that we are quite used to dealing with such things and you folks are not.

Excessive wind warning (a rare call) was issued for Rockport at about 5:30 CDT. This is an indication that the outside of the storm has reached that location. The eye is not yet on land -- assuming it does.

Helpless. I'm praying it goes down to a category one with less than five- six inches of rain.

CNN is just reporting 130 winds when it hits. I'm getting dressed and going to church maybe G- d can hear my prayers better there.

@Freya I believe that yesterday @Victoria33 said she's up in the D/FW area right now and out of the path of the storm.
@Freya
@txradioguy

Yes, I am north of Dallas.  I own a townhouse in Montgomery County, which touches Harris County on the north.  I won't know if my townhouse and belongings make it through without damage until roads are open to go there and that will be a number of days based on the information I am getting from the Sheriff's Dept. of Montgomery County.  They are sending notices to all of us who are signed up there for notices. They have backup power so their notices are going to keep going to us through and after this storm.  Montgomery County could get 15 inches of rain.  As I get notices, I will post them here so people who live in the Houston area will know what is going on as what happens to Houston, happens in Montgomery County.

I will get an email from Entergy, my electric company there, if power goes off at my house.  That is a given, power is going out.

So, I know @mystery-ak said to keep this relevant, and it will be, but I would to share this:

I left Katy for Sugar Land about noon. Since I got off early, I went to my weekend hangout, the local icehouse, to see what was going on. I made a joke, that " Here comes a Hurricane, and we all sought refuge in a metal garage beer joint".
It got a few laughs.
The people who hang out there, live nearby, but about 6-7  of them have there vacation/retirement homes in places like Seargent, Rockport, Port Lavaca, etc. You could see that some were worried, that what they have worked for, may be gone, or severely damaged, when this all plays out.

They kept a stiff upper lip, but you cold see it in their expressions.
