Hey! Sorry, been super busy with school. As for the storm, people are going cray cray. There is like no more water left on the shelves and school districts are closing....EXCEPT for mine lol--right now. Anyways, I'm more worried about the flooding than anything else. I live on the second floor, so at least my apt will be okay. Thanks Walkie and Critter. I'll try to keep all y'all updated. Be safe!!

""Hurricane Harvey is expected to make landfall as a "major hurricane" according to the latest forecast data from the National Hurricane Center. The direct impact will be felt along the Texas coast Friday evening into Saturday morning.
A Hurricane Wind Warning has been issued for the Texas coast from Port Mansfield to Sargent.

Harvey is officially a Hurricane now....some spots on the gulf Coast of Texas may receive 30 inches of rain.

Here's a track model for Saturday through next Thursday. ..





Not good for the Louisiana coast either.
This has changed also....here's another model....





...Today through next Friday.

I had to go into work this morning from 8-10, but only the teachers/staff. We put everything important above flood levels (hopefully).

Spec's liquor was a madhouse and so was Home Depot.

Airbnb is offering free accommodations in San Antonio, Austin and Dallas for evacuees until Sept 1st. I'm not sure yet what we'll do...especially if Harvey decides to strengthen to cat 3.

Be safe!!!
