Supposing a hurricane was going to hit in my area (see my tagline). How far inland would I have to go to be safe from the worst winds and flooding? (Flooding is my main concern.)
I've seen on tv how traffic is at a crawl during an evacuation, so if I left the day before expected landfall, would I get far enough away by the time it hit? Or is that waiting too long?
Would tent camping in the Sam Houston National Forest be a horrible idea? I don't know how windy it would be that far north of Houston. I don't know much about hurricanes, can you tell? :-)
I'm glad y'all are here to educate me on this stuff. Thanks.

You are pretty far inland so your worry is high wind and heavy (very heavy) rain, I would think a nice tall hotel in the area would be fine, if you are going to leave the area, leave 48 hours before expected land fall. 24 hours the roads will be jammed with folks fleeing Galveston county and clear lake.
