I know they are fairly certain of the track, to Port Arthur. But really, everyone down to Corpus Christi had better keep an eye on this storm. When they get this big, they don’t always turn.

If it does stay on track, the city of Sulphur could be under water. This will be worse than Rita.

Oh, Dear Lord. I am nauseous looking at that monster. Praying for the souls in its path. And it's only August. What else does 2020 have to offer, in the form of hurricanes (and anything else)??? 🙏
