I’m getting a little concerned about the new evacuate at the drop of a hat mentality. When the storm comes you need the people who need to evac on the roads and as few others as possible. In Rita, Houston had hundreds of thousands who didn’t need to go on the roads, blocking it up. The bus that exploded was from an assisted living center that would not have flooded. The media whipped people up into a panic, imo.

Agreed... During Rita, people in CONROE were evacuating for goodness sakes...

I think... they are tryring to improved things by doing "phased evacuations"... most people near the coast were told to get out yesterday. Now, they're moving inland.
