FINALLY! [Kathryn Jean Lopez]
Watching the cable channels you couldn't help but notice a mess of traffic on one side and empty lanes on the others.
"A Texas-connected government dude tells me that's changing:
You watching all this traffic on tv? Looks miserable. We’ve been on the phone all day. Looks like things are finally starting to open up. They have all lanes outbound in some parts now, and things are speeding up. Long way to go, though."

No one planned on everyone from Houston leaving at the same time with 3 cars per family!
Cars are running out of gas left and right. Some people are going back home. The westher channel predicts some big trouble. Waves are 34 feet high out in the Gulf. That's simply hard to fathom and the surge hasn't come in. (transcribing the weather channel guy at 4:50 pm est. Lakes Charles expects highest surge also in La and south to Shreveport. 15 to 20 feet surge or more in nooks and crannies. Cameron, Louisiana, Beaumont, Galveston. Says landfall by Saturday morning PER DR. LYONS of the Weather Channel.
