Be safe down there and prayers that there is no loss of life. You can always replace property but not lives.

Best of luck. As a child born of a natural disaster (thanks hurricane hugo), wrap it up.

I kid. But be safe. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

Be safe to those in the path of the hurricane. Looks like a dangerous one. If you're asked to evacuate, pack up and leave your home vs. trying to ride it out. Flooding is the primary concern from what I'm hearing.

to my fellow Texans in the path, good luck and please don't let your mustangs drown.
If anyone needs resources during or after maybe some of us might know people who can help.
God bless and I hope everyone comes out of this unscathed.
you guys are going to need this the worst. Houston is gonna get hammered like there is no tomorrow. Austin is going to get hit with something between 2 and 5 inches my yard MIGHT get flooded like it did a few years ago

This will definitely be a unique hurricane. Very unusual for it to make landfall and then just sit there and dump rain. Tropical storm Allison back in '01 did and dumped almost 30" of rain in 24 hours. Harvey will be even stronger. Stay safe guys.

I'm in NW cypress/Tomball just light rain. Apparently today and even part of Saturday won't be too bad, it's Sunday, Monday that we are really going to get dumped on.

I've been in contact with my father who lives in Harlingen, which is by South Padre Island. He is saying Corpus is getting pounded, but he just has some wind and rain in his area. Getting a little storm surge on South Padre.

Last time I saw a thread like this, the OP lost his car (completely flooded)....

May luck be on your side. Every one stay safe.
