What's happening in the Houston area?

How are you guys doing? Looks like the eye is still on track for Galveston and Houston. Keep us posted and stay safe!

It looks like we will be ok here in Houston, but it looks like parts of Galveston will be gone by Sunday.

They said this morning the the entire island is going to go under water and every one should leave the island.

At least I don't have to worry about my smartcar! It is safe because it is still in pieces some where in France!

Looks like this would have been a smart weekend to take a roadtrip out of Houston in the smart car. Hope everyone made it OK. San Antonio didn't get one drop of rain today...99 degrees here by the pool.
