THanks -> I-10. THat's it.
They said TX Hwy patrol was setting up road construction outside of Houston making it worse. Dragged out a map. Looks like ~350mi between NO and Houston.

IIRC, the levee tops are 18' above the river Wow! That's not much protection tonight.

It didn't help that he airlines abandoned the tourists so they wouldn't lose money.

"I plan on doing such tomorrow. My company has a match on any charity donations, so I want them to do such."
Yes, excellent idea. Within 12 hours, we will be doing this tomorrow on a national scale.
On a related note, I'm looking forward to reading of the donations being made by other countries.

Gonna get some sleep. Get up early before heading to work...and see how bad it is then.
Y'all be good.
Everyone on the coast....stay safe...check in if you can and let us know that you are ok.

Heard earlier there were residents of Grand Island who chose not to evacuate.

I believe that they have an emergency battery-powered lighting system, like most stadii.

I watched the press conference this morning announcing the mandatory evac. My first thought was, there are eight people up on that stage, and not one of them has a clue what to do. I'll admit the projections are overwhelming, but you are elected LEADERS! Unfortunately, you don't have the luxury of discussion, debate, contingencies, and indecision.

That is the first glimmer of hope all evening. Thanks.

I'm praying that the winds will continue to decline and spare our fellow Americans. I just can't imagine the fear and horror those poor folks are going through.

Catastrophic building failure is a very real possiblity.This is so awful.
If only they could have gotten everybody out.

Sounds like a wonderful topping for ice cream or crepes. Would be good over angel food cake as well. :-)
