Hurricane Rita was the same, power out for weeks. It is miserable this time of year and even with a generator, we could run the frig and fans. Forget anything like a coffee pot or stove or microwave. We unplugged the frig at night long enough to cool a room down for the kids to sleep in.

I wouldn't have come home except I had an essential job at the time. Stay away if you can.
