Thanks once again NN for taking the time to keep us informed. Hope this one goes the way of Bonnie, but it has been hot. Next week, Aug 18, is the anniversary of Alicia which hit the greater Houston area in 1983. Guess it's “churn time” in the gulf. Stay safe.

I remember the forecasters back then telling us it was just a rainmaker and when it became a hurricane we were told it would be minimal, nothing to worry about, just a lot of rain, then it got closer and turned into a cat 3, and stayed stalled on the coast of Galveston for close to 24 hours. Oh yeah, I remember that storm, and in some ways was worse than Ike.Lots of rain and lots of trees down, tons of glass in the street downtown.
