Is that really what they are forecasting for Dallas?

They're forecasting "high winds and rain." After seeing Katrina with tropical storm winds 250-300 miles inland after landfall, I extrapolated that we'd get 50-70 mph winds up here. I suspect we'll get a few tornadoes as well.

Wow. I think I need to prepare for no power, then. Crud.

Sunday: Showers and thunderstorms likely. Cloudy, with a high around 85. Windy, with a east southeast wind 30 to 35 mph becoming west 20 to 25 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%.
