Beautiful, Meg.
My daughter and son in law are just north of Houston ..My son in law had knee surgery this morning..They are not able to leave and come here..My daughter is chronically ill and very sensitive to heat..The power will go off for sure...
I am praying they will be safe and can get here later if the power goes ..when it is safe to drive...
We will get some of Ike but I am about 2 and 1/2 hours from Houston.
Prayers for all in harms way.
