Checking in from Katy. It's REALLY not looking good for Katy, so I'm heading out with the kids and the dog this afternoon. Husband is going to stay and finish preparations in the house and head out early in the morning. Does any have a suggestion as whether I should take the beltway to the north or the south. Thanks.

You know what I just remembered? We need to tell people to give somebody their home and cell numbers because THEY might not be able to call OUT, but people might be able to get them, remember?

Ok, checking in. I just got back from the 290 area and it's backing up. Gas stations around the NW loop are out of unleaded and the girl told me gas deliveries have been stopped...this was at Shamrock. They're selling unlead plus for the same price as leaded. Kroger is an absolute mad house.

This is beginning to freak me out.

My cousin, Rob, wife and son on Duncannon Street in Houston.

He's in the medical field and works at the VA Hospital down there. Busy prepping patients for possible evacuations.

Forgot to say where I was going. We're going to stay with my family in Prairieville (suburb of Baton Rouge).

All vehicles fueled, water stored, food packed, guns loaded and dogs shaved.

Sounds good! Be safe, and well!

Why would you even consider taking the Beltway south? What's your final destination?
