Wimberley IS beautiful....except when it floods :(
I take it you don’t live there, since you misspelled Wimberley.

This one's a 23KW Koehler, propane. We have a 500 gallon tank, which would probably only run it for 48-72 hours or so.
So, we would likely just use it sparingly during a prolonged outage until we know there's more propane available.

Wow, that's a family pedigree. I've been in Alabama about twenty ears now. Been an NWS Skywarn storm spotter about twenty-five. Took college courses in meteorology, oceanography, and whatnot because I've been fascinated by weather since I was a little kid growing up in the mountains. My computers and phone are loaded with weather apps and links, as well.

If hurricane hits it might blow your house away whether you are there or not.
We go to Pass Christian every summer for a week. First time we went was week before the most horrible storm struck. At least we have memories of what was. We went through Ike and lost a lot but it was just stuff.
Go to Wimberly, be with your family and be safe.

"I take it you dont live there, since you misspelled Wimberley." Nah.
When I lived in Texas I lived in Bellaire and Richmond.
(BTW, Jane Long is buried in Richmond)

Dad told me before NOAA the state of flat Had weather stations every 30 miles on the coast from Jacksonville to key West, then up the west coast to port st. Joe. They would take barometric readings every half hour and call it into Miami. The lowest reading was where the cane would hit. Pretty primitive but accurate

No, I lived in New Braunfels for years, came back to the Houston area for work. Gotta go where the mony’s at <-just joking. Where the money's at.
Love to move back to the hill country someday though.

Mountains? What that? If you stand on a ladder I could probably see you from here. Florida’s pretty flat.
Oh, we only have 2 seasons here. Hot and really hot! You grew up in the mountains? Which state?
