Default !*!*! Eye of the Storm !*!*!

I’ve been to many disasters and Harvey is still fresh on my mind not to mention the sand storms in the sandpit but sometimes you just fold your hands together 🙏🏻 and say/pray ✝️


“ok enough alright”
The Ranch will be fine in west Texas but in a few hrs I will be in the middle of the eye 👀

At least it is a weak Cat 1 storm. Girl who works with me was stuck in Jamaica when Beryl hit. Don't think she will ever forget the experience. Hope you escape with no damage. I know how Houston floods though.

So far we good.
1.3 mil ppl out of power.
Power went out briefly but generator kicked it few seconds later.
No trees down just a few branches.
The wind is howling thou.
10” of rain so far and some roads flooding.

I've been Goose hunting west of Katy, I am sure there are lots of flooded fields now.

Anyways the eye is now up here in MI, its raining and we already got 1.5" overnight. More to come. A wicked 16mph wind.

Katy ain’t is what it was before.
Lots of home developments going on and a lot of hunting areas for birds are shut down by those developers.
Btw, only time I pick up a shotgun is for turkeys at the Rio Grande

Houston is a mess, still 1.3 mil ppl out of power and no work when the power company thinks this will
be restored.
Glad that I got a whole house generator but we never lost power in the first place.
10”+ in Katy and sustain winds around 50miles with gust around 70 mile.

Cat 1 ain’t that bad but if it hits a large city like Houston you can bet on it some power goes out.
2.2 million ppl without and still I think the latest is 900.000 are without power.
But yes it ain’t a storm that will tumble your lawn chairs 😂

Yep hummer is always high and dry.
I don’t even drive it when rain is in the forecast.
That raptorliner coating on it is a pain to wash as you got to do it as a hand wash with a tough hard brush.
