I just came from outside. The wind is starting to kick up a little bit, but the storm is still some 200 miles offshore. Galveston Island is already being flooded by storm surge, and folks who aren't out of the mandatory evac areas yet are being told to go to Lufkin or Bryan/College Station since I-45 to Huntsville and I-10 to San Antonio still have some backup situations. Landfall is expected early tommorow morning, Houston should have hurricane force winds bearing down around 2 AM. It should clear out by that evening. If I have power, I'll keep everyone updated. I plan to park the 300D up on higher and sheltered ground in a little bit.
