Watching Ike

September 13, 2008

I just can't seem to get enough of hurricane coverage. I've never been a big time weather watcher, but ever since my own evacuation from New Orleans because of Hurricane Gustav last week, I'm glued to the television.

I've been to Galveston numerous times throughout my life, and the newscasters are already saying this is the worst storm to hit the town since the big one in 1900.

I called one of my little sisters who lives in Houston last night and she said she wasn't evacuating. She lives in part of the city that doesn't flood and she lives on the third floor of an apartment complex, so she thought she'd be safe. But does she have power? Water?

Judging from the path of the storm, it looks like North Texas will be getting a huge chunk of rain from Ike as well. Is hurricane season EVER going to end?
