Be safe everyone!

From experience back in 2004 with Frances and Jeanne and Wilma in 2005, it's one hell of a ride.

From someone who lost everything he owned in Hurricane Andrew 25 years ago, I wish you luck and will keep all of in South Texas in my prayers. It's the wind and tornados that can get you regardless of all the planning you did. Watch out for yourself and family, everything else can be replaced.

Default Good Luck

Good Luck, I was a 1st responded to Katrina and Rita in 2004, The Water will come in. Look to get out if you are within 9-10 miles of the shore. They are predicting 10' surge

I'm in NE Texas, so pretty much out of harms way (I think), but hoping all you folks anywhere near the gulf coast do what ever necessary to protect your lives and the lives of your pets/animals. I go with others above in agreeing on losing property is and can be devastating, but it can be replaced, your life cannot! Please be safe and good luck to all who may be affected!
