We get stupid New Yorkers who flock to the Cape every summer. That must be some sort of natural disaster.

I grew up going to Galveston every summer with my parents, and my grandparents lived in Beaumont, so thinking only good thoughts for all the Texas and
Louisiana peeps. This is a nasty boy coming for sure. Prayers go out to all of you and your families. Stay safe.

City of Houston just ordered folks off the roads by 6:30 PM and set curfew for mandatory evacuation areas from 6:30 PM to 6:30 AM for the next 2 days.
Patrols will step up in the evac areas to ensure that looting and violating property rights does not happen. The mayor says violations will be punished swiftly and severely. The state has given the mayor special authority during the emergency to make this happen. |

Some reports are saying
40% of Galveston residents have remained behind. Anyone know if a city has ever been the recipient of a Darwin award?

(don't really think it's him, atleast I hope not) We spent all our summers when I was little in Surfside, before the coastline eroded and we started going to Padre and Galveston. |

The wind is getting stronger and stronger. I am becoming more scared by minutes. I will go outside and look around and see if there are any trees or anything
that will damage our home.

Finish: Don't go outside! Flying projectiles could hit you! Nothing you can do about your trees now.

So why exactly are so many of the people of Galveston staying behind? Does the phrase "certain death" mean nothing to them?

Fluffy, I used to live in Slidell on Pontch. Drive. How has the city come back after Katrina? I know it got slammed, couldn't even find my old apartment
on Goggle Earth anymore.
Watching that water slam up into the seawall and the storm is still a ways off is something... |
