Texas' Jefferson and Oranges counties were told to evacuate early Wednesday

They may have been asked, or it might have been suggested that they leave, but they were not TOLD to. There is no law that mandates an evacuation in Texas. We just hate being TOLD what we can and can't do. ;-)

Somebody is praying, its loosing steam quickly. It looks like the only thing its going to kill is the drought. By the way, they don't teach you this on the weather channel. Hurricanes are critical in balancing the Earth's production of oxygen and carbon dioxide. They do much more good than harm in the grand scale of things.
