It looks like you've gotten good advice on the battery situation. I'm anxiously awaiting further updates from you. I could hardly believe the video I saw of the storm as it was hitting Hardin County.

Have you been able to travel at all from your current location? I'm worried about all the structures in that area, including your home. The storm was still packing a whallop when it reached Jasper.

No. There IS no travel allowed. The roads are blocked by police/deputies/Texas state trooper/National Guard. Everything is down: schools, businesses, banks, payroll checks, ATMs, gasoline, my cell phone service, etc. I do have water (boil only) and a land telephone. And we got our generator running today. I can now run a box fan!!!!!!

Oh, and my home is okay. But my neighbors got a tree across the back. Basically, in this area, if you had a tree to the north of you, it was just a matter of luck whether or not it fell. You just wouldn't believe the damage. It's everywhere. Not only trees, but telephone poles snapped in half by the wind.
