Most of of the coastal region has evacuated north to Austin or Dallas. My office is located next to the NASA Space Center and we closed up shop at noon today in advance of the storm. At 14 feet elevation, it won't take much of a storm surge to flood the area. My domicle is located across town outside of any of the coastal flood region, like most of west Houston, and we are not planning to evacuate the area. Planning to hunker down here and ride out the wind/rain. We've laid on plenty of food/water/beer/wine/bullets to survive the next few days.
Not my first rodeo here. We stayed put for Rita in 2005 and plan to do the same this time.
Hope all of my friends out there in south Texas remain safe & dry!

Bullets? Are those necessary?
Now the beer... that I completely understand!
Not really, but given what transpired with Katrina, one should always (as we say in the scouts) "be prepared".
