Local news weatherman reading wire reports of buildings blown down in Rockport. Harvey has officially made landfall, just east of Rockport.

Ah, that makes sense.  I wondered why it got light all of a sudden.  Dude probably got impaled by a telephone pole flying at 120 mph.

Landfall four miles east of Rockport. San Jose island mentioned. Love that town. Wonder what will be left.

Harvey will remain a hurricane for over 24 hours and come inland farther than any other has-  near Victoria and predicting it will loop back to the coast, slowing down, too. Yikes!

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.
Prayers up for you, your dogs, and your roof and trees. Stay safe.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I wouldn't wish that on anyone, I worked a job in the California desert once when the wind kicked up to 60 and 70 mph gusts and the metal decking flying off the structure scared the bejeezus out of me and was the only time that job got shut down due to weather.

Praying for you Jazz ... can you safely get to a shelter or are the winds and rain too strong right now? Sometimes they have shelters that accept dogs -- usually you need proof of vaccinations.

Fell asleep. Just woke up. Going to go on my knees and pray....don't want to look at the pictures of those weathermen/weather people?



I just want them to stay alive., please G-d?

Please don't let people die in this. Harvey is the name of Jimmy Stewart's rabbit. Please keep people safe. Rabbits wouldn't kill anyone. Especially if they belong to a WW II veteran.

NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL092017
400 AM CDT Sat Aug 26 2017

...HARVEY MOVING SLOWLY INLAND OVER SOUTH TEXAS...
...CATASTROPHIC FLOODING EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS DUE TO
HEAVY RAINFALL...


SUMMARY OF 400 AM CDT...0900 UTC...INFORMATION
----------------------------------------------
LOCATION...28.5N 97.2W
ABOUT 30 MI...50 KM SW OF VICTORIA TEXAS
ABOUT 105 MI...170 KM SE OF SAN ANTONIO TEXAS
MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...100 MPH...155 KM/H
PRESENT MOVEMENT...NW OR 325 DEGREES AT 6 MPH...9 KM/H
MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...963 MB...28.44 INCHES


WATCHES AND WARNINGS
--------------------
CHANGES WITH THIS ADVISORY:

The Hurricane Warning and Storm Surge Warning have been
discontinued south of Baffin Bay.  The Hurricane Warning north of
Port O'Connor to Sargent has been changed to a Tropical Storm
Warning.

SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT:

A Storm Surge Warning is in effect for...
* Baffin Bay to High Island Texas

A Hurricane Warning is in effect for...
* Baffin Bay to Port O'Connor Texas

A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for...
* North of Port O'Connor to High Island Texas

A Storm Surge Warning means there is a danger of life-threatening
inundation from rising water moving inland from the coastline in the
indicated locations. For a depiction of areas at risk, please see
the National Weather Service Storm Surge Watch/Warning Graphic,
available at hurricanes.gov.  This is a life-threatening situation.

A Hurricane Warning means that hurricane conditions are expected
somewhere within the warning area. Preparations to protect life and
property should already be complete.

A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are
expected somewhere within the warning.

Interests in southwestern Louisiana should continue to monitor the
progress of this system.

For storm information specific to your area, including possible
inland watches and warnings, please monitor products issued by your
local National Weather Service forecast office.


DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
At 400 AM CDT (0900 UTC), the eye of Hurricane Harvey was located
by NOAA Doppler radar near latitude 28.5 North, longitude 97.2 West.
Harvey is moving toward the northwest near 6 mph (9 km/h).  Harvey
is expected to slow down through the day and meander over
southeastern Texas through the middle of next week.

Doppler radar data indicate that maximum sustained winds have
decreased to near 100 mph (155 km/h) with higher gusts.  Additional
weakening is forecast, and Harvey is likely to become a tropical
storm later today.

Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 35 miles (55 km) from the
center, and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 140
miles (220 km).

The estimated minimum central pressure is 963 mb (28.44 inches).

Almost 10 inches of rain have already been reported at a few
locations in southeastern Texas.

Not just any WW2 vet either.

Friend of mine used to belong to the Beverly Hills Methodist, same place Jimmy attended.

Every Christmas, Jimmy Stewart would read the Christmas story to the congregation, until he died in 1997 at age 89.

Wish we had actors still like him.  I would to to the show if they did.
