I'm going to be posting a lot, while electricity lasts...

... just had, briefly, the first rain shower of the day.

Alone in the house now, watching weather reports and awaiting the worst.

I know you've been here before with Rita...but still, kinda weird, isn't it?

Line of thunderstorms and touch-and-go tornadoes going over my house right now, so I can sympathize.

Ike and the like.

Look on the positive side: no storm surge. From what I've seen on television; you may get lucky, the Hurricane has changed track slightly.
If your house has a central hall; that's probably the safest place to be, since there are no windows to blow glass on you and central hallways are about the best protected (by the rest of the structure) parts of the house.
Stay safe!
