You’ll have your answer in about 12 minutes with the latest update. I think that is the one that everyone makes decisions off of. We’re what, a little over 24 hours before impacts are being felt. That is very little
Time to get out of an area the size of Houston. Reminds me a lot of Rita.

Living in Houston people panicked over Marco on Saturday but not much over Laura. Maybe today will be a wake up call.

Since seeing the movie Apocoalypto in the past year I try to imagine what happened on the Yucatán when a hurricane came rolling through back then. Sorry, random thought.
Good luck to SWLA and East Tx.

Wasn’t Rita originally on track to hit Houston but started tracking East?

Same here. Think I’m leaving today and these westward shifts have convinced me to go East. Mississippi Casinos are cheap. May even go to Orange Beach and watch the waves roll in.
