Weather Channel said oil refineries in Lake Charles were evacuated. Do you think they have skeleton crew at them for emergencies?
Of course they do and emergency stand by contractors as well.
Looks like window of opportunity has closed to get out via I-10. Ruh-roh!
Yes. They ride out the worst of it together, in a central strong building that is tall enough to get out of any storm surge.
When I was younger, I used to volunteer for this duty. I watched the eye of Alicia pass over my head. And, I sweated out a couple of huge storms that just missed us.
