Last night I thought the same thing. Now, I'm not so sure.
My wife called awhile ago to check on the whereabouts of relatives heading out of Houston for San Antonio. They left late last night. They're stuck in traffic at Katy!
For all practical purposes, they've barely made it to the Houston city limits! A friend reports a brother hit the same kind of outbound Houston traffic, got off the freeway and went back home. Not good signs.
Hopefully, things will ease up by tomorrow.
No one is going anywhere on the freeway...people are starting to run out of gas...8 hours to go 12 miles in some cases even slower...all plans sound good on paper...we are waiting to see if the traffic ever lets up...if not, we are just going to stay here.
