Praying you wi all be safe and suffer no damage.

Thinking of you. Hope it passes without too much damage for people. Those high winds sure are scary.

I am thinking of everyone who might be in the path. We are still not all back together from Hurricane Matthew last October and so I am more than extremely aware of how serious and devastating this could be. My thoughts are with you all.

Yep. We are canceled also.

I saw pretty much all of the schools here have canceled.

Are you all evacuating? Our news sound really grim for the San Antonio to Houston area as well as all coastal areas. Please be safe.

Not evacuating, too many animals, need to be here to watch the water levels. Just relieved they went ahead and canceled school. They are doing road construction right by the school, started it the first day of school. Busses have been running an hour late with good weather. Really poor planning on a commissioner that's running for re-election.

No not evacuating either. They have put in evacuation orders in now for the coast areas where it is likely to come on land. Around Brazoria County.

I'm in Brazoria County, hoping it doesn't come onland near me.

Hoping that all of you in the way of the storm will be safe.

All of you in the path, please be safe.

We're not evacuating. Some of the surrounding streets and roads flood. Our specific area handled the water fairly well during the Tax day flood last year and earlier rains this year. This is our first hurricane. We'll see what it brings.

Keeping all of you Texans in my prayers.

Anyone that might be in Harris County and would like to have access to see the creek levels by the minute here's the website for all the creeks there's a drop down menu to choose from for the various creeks. I would think other counties have these same websites for the creeks in their area.

Last I read, which was last night it was still expected to be a cat 3. That's awful that it's now a 4. Stay safe everyone in the path of this thing.

How are yall doing out there?

My prayers are with all of you in the storm's path. I hope you all stay safe and out of harm's way in this terrible looking storm. My niece and her SO are in Houston and just bought their first house a couple of months ago. We are all worried.

I just posted on the other thread. Yes it is a category 4 now with 130 mph sustained winds. It is coming in at Rockport. It is going to be catastrophic for the coastal areas there. Uninhabitable for weeks and more is what they are saying. Sad.

Scary!

Left Biloxi, today. Awesome weather. Safe thoughts for all those in harms way.

Depends where in Houston. In my area, very light rain all day. The worst is expecting to arrive Houston late Tuesday or Wednesday. That's when Harvey, a tropical storm by then, is expecting to dump a lot of rain. I've moved into my mom's apartment since she's on the 2nd floor. Had prepared for the worst just in case.

Terilyn, Raven, Marilyn and the rest, please stay safe. Hope for the best. Looks like Harvey may be heading straight to our NW area... yhuk...

You are, will be and have been in my prayers all day. Please be careful and go if you need to.

We love Rockport and Port Aransas as vacation spots, such a beautiful area.

So far there is a bit of lightning, some rain and light wind, no flooding anywhere I can see in my neighborhood. So not a big deal yet.

Three hours later and it is about the same. I understand that possibilities of the ground getting soaked so it can't absorb water but right now the drainage systems are working well, there is no flooding that I can see and the rain so far has not been extremely heavy. The winds are not high at all.

We had tornado and flood alerts going off several times in the night. Still ok outside as far as I can see.

It's raining hard here now. The creeks have begun to rise slightly. Pretty calm during the night. It has not moved much at all and still looks very intact and intense. The outer bands that would be hitting us with heavy rain seem to be building looking at radar. It is pulling in the gulf water. This is what we need to watch carefully.
