For my fellow east Texans be safe as we weather the storm.

Amen you too my brother . As Bugs Bunny once said "batten down the hatches! "

[hudson]

One of my best days was actually in a storm 12 inches in an hour, got there at daybreak, light rain..best day on that site, as I was leaving I met the troops comin in, don’t know if I got everything, but I sure left em a muddy mess,.competition was fierce

[Uncle Trav]

Hold on tight folks. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you all. I been through a hurricane and it ain’t no joke. Be safe.

[Hal Gorges]

In Michigan?,Lol.

[Uncle Trav]

I grew up on the Gulf Coast of southwest Florida.

[Benji]

Yes, be safe out there all....looks like a pretty bad storm.

[SurfaceHunter]

Find the lowest part of your home with no windows. I slept through hurricane Charlie in Florida in the hallway with all of the doors shut. Made it just fine. Hope you make it just fine as well if you are staying home. The hurricane isn't that bad if no tornadoes spin off. Good luck

[Hal Gorges]

No electric for 8 days in the last on here..

[CMD]

I knew two Swamp Yankee farmer brothers who went without electricity their entire life. Not me, lol. Maybe a week a couple times.

My mom and sister are in the Beaumont area. They are saying it’s almost a cat 5 now. Prayers are appreciated 😐

[antmike915]

My prayers goes out to all of you and/ or relatives and friends that will be effected by this storm. Do what you have to do to be safe.

[redrocks]

Amen brother....prayers for all you. In the path

[Josie]

Hopefully Laura blows thru quickly without spawning tornadoes. Prayers for everyone's safety.

[hudson]

So far so good here, looks like it is going east of me .

[Lindenmeier-Man]

Just a mess out there now ! I feel bad for the folks in heat/ humidity without electricity .....Damn. Then comes the really bad part... The insurance companies not paying claims on homes that are gone, and people still have mortgages.
They can’t decide if the wind or water took the home away. Well ya know we don’t sell flood ins in the area you were in, we would cover the wind damage but it’s gonna take a few years to decide as to why your home is gone ! So on and so forth ....

[Lindenmeier-Man]

Oh, and by the way, your premium is going up, on the home that is gone ! Crooks !

[hudson]

A lot would depend on the flood plane.
