Ike in Texas

**bogwoppit** · 09-11-2008, 02:37 PM

Hey Texas people, I really hope this one is not too bad. Hurricane Ike is looking pretty fierce. Please take care, stay safe and get away if necessary. I'll be thinking of you.

Yeah - Ike looks like a biggie. I hope all of our Texas friends and their loved ones stay safe.

Prayers and best wishes to all affected.

I agree! The saying that everything is bigger in Texas better not apply to hurricanes!

My thoughts are with everyone, stay safe!

Ike looks to be very bad as far as flooding. I hope everyone listened when told to evacuate.

Prayers to all affected. Personal items can be replaced - lives cannot

Stay strong, folks! As they say, this too shall pass.

Take care everyone! I'll be thinking of you, as we were very nervously watching this one last week, ourselves!

Thanks for the thoughts & prayers! I'm just west of Houston, in Katy, and they told us to shelter in place. It's 11pm here right now and I can hear the wind outside, but it's not raining yet and it's not supposed to hit Katy until 2am. I guess i'll be pulling an all-nighter.

I'll post an update tomorrow if we have power. Hope it's not too bad, but seems like it keeps getting worse. It's 1mph away from being a Category 3 right now, so basically it's a Category 3. Nothin I can do but wait at this point.
