Here’s an update from Katy, TX (west of Houston and about 60 miles from the coast). We lost power about 8 pm, Wind speeds were a steady 20-35 mph untilabout 11pm, but have been gusting higher and higher. The nitwits two doors down finally moved their party inside when the rain kicked in around midnight.
I am sitting in my garage listening to the rain and howling wind, praying for my wife’s ex-husband. He is one of the cretins who decided to ride it out at his one story, ground level home on the bay side of Galveston. We have not heard from him since early afternoon and his children are quite distraught. Selfish, alcoholic bastard though he is; we offered him the use of our guest room. He declined.
Decisions have consequences. Those consequences can ripple out to tear the heart out of a 12 year old girl and a 17 year old boy. Lord keep him safe for their sakes.
To all in the path of this storm; may the Lord keep you in the hollow of his hand.
Bet he headed for high grounds.Prayers.
God comfort the children..That is rough.
