He did survive. there are photos of Jeff and his fellow storm chasers on his Twitter page.
Yes, several of us were following Jeff’s dramatic broadcast last night. Is he ok today?
Thank you for the update on Jeff P.
Firehouse pointed at houston most of the day
going to get bad get bad
Thanks NautiNurse - I appreciate the post!
Update: Jeff P. survived his close encounter with Hurricane Harvey at the carwash, and #blueshed is trending on twitter.
??? I don’t understand your firehouse reference.
The builder of that utility shed needs to trademark “Blue Shed” immediately and capitalize, there were thousands of comments from people laughingly posting that they wanted one.
I tried to watch but Jeff P’s accent finally got the best of me after the hundredth “corworsh.” I hope he’s getting some rest, he sounded overwrought.
Autocorrect. She meant “firehose.”
Might have been a looter thinking the cops are not going to come by in a hurricane, and not expecting an armed resident.
I believe it’s been confirmed that the lone shooting actually was due to an attempted looting.
Houston Hobby so far reporting only 2 inches in the past 12 hrs. So far, so good. Fingers crossed.
Oh, I don’t doubt they’re going to get plenty of rain. It would be a highly unusual track if they didn’t.
I am located in North Austin. Rains have been steady but not terrible since the early morning. Wind is currently estimated at 23 mph with gusts to 32 mph. Per projected radar, more significant rain is estimated to hit starting around 0900. Fortunately we are in the high part of Austin so flooding it not a concern. Wind may be for our trees, depending on how strong it is.
He did. He just did a live broadcast. He and other chasers are making their way to Houston.
He made it to a hotel with a bunch of other news people. Dramatic it was.
Funny you should mention Georgetown. A friend of mine and her husband just bought a house there to retire in. She drove down from the Seattle area and arrived there...yesterday.
Yeesh. Welcome to Texas.
Tornado in Houston area—initial estimates 50 homes damaged.
I meant fire HOSE
12z models keep this HOSE going for at least the next 24 hours
it will wobble back and forth...
This is a large convergence band ..very dangerous situation setting up for Hosuton Metro
