    Thanks again @kathy. Yes, done this a bunch of times, but it's never easy knowing things could just be gone tomorrow. It is what it is, and we are part of an awesome community. The eclipse was my awesome after party!
  • ABcrazyABcrazy
    Whoop! Hurricane page changing!
  • KathyKathy
    Nice!!! page change @ABCrazy!!
    Yep you can't beat a Total Eclipse of the Sun for an After party!!
  • ABcrazyABcrazy
    Hurricane party is a Texas gulf coast tradition (I'm ignoring how ill-advised it is since the strongest winds are now gone). Hello BP! Drinks are on me as long as wi-fi and cell are still available. Both Comcast and vzw have opened/unlimited data in our storm affected area. That's reason enough to party. OB are my 4th of July fireworks still stashed in the back?
  • KathyKathy
    Woot!! @ABCrazy!!
    OB l have a Blue Mongo with a shot of Sunshine's super secret flinging potion please!!
    @Gumby @Knichy come join the party!! I believe our friends across the pond are sound asleep atm..
    it is early but my eyes are heavy also, I'll try to stay awake for some fireworks though :D

    @kathy I'm the blue dot to the right of that belt of red & yellow moving in our direction. That is A line of strong thunderstorms similar to what we have been looking at since Thurs and expect to keep seeing until next Thurs. It comes with flash flood and tornado warnings. The screeching noise warnings come so often we are starting to ignore them. The (big) grey overlayed ghost balls indicate the predicted area where the storm could go over the next few days - normally that would track northeast, in this case, who knows?
  • KathyKathy
    oopsy started dozing off there for a minute..
  • KathyKathy
    Oohh I see the blue dot. That's pretty close @ABCrazy . yikes!

    That was a long night. We are still dry for now, but many many many around us are not. Please keep us in your thoughts. This will not end any time soon. I'll try to check in again when I can.
  • HunnybunnyHunnybunny
    @abcrazy hope you are still dry, safe, and partying...
  • ABcrazyABcrazy
    Thanks @hunnybunny we are. We are very fortunate to have one of the higher houses in the neighborhood so we are ok for now. Many houses are flooded though. The whole city is a mess, and this is a huge city. The storm is not moving much, so we may have a few more days to deal with this. I appreciate your thoughts.
  • KathyKathy

    @tompuss, @kathy, @hunnybunny, @gumby thanks again for keeping me in mind. We are still ok. The rain keeps coming, the streets and homes around us keep flooding. If you are watching it on the news, it really is THAT bad. They were calling it a 900 years flood yesterday. It's mind boggling. Most people I know are also fine, either hunkered down, or already evacuated. 2 or 3 more days to go.
  • HunnybunnyHunnybunny
    @abcrazy we are watching on the news....
    Glad you are safe
  • KathyKathy
    Thank you @Tompuss for the music to send me of to Dreamland :D. headed there now
    @ABCrazy happy to hear you are still safe. ya the news looks bad. so many
    still in danger..Stay safe!

    @abcrazy still safe? The news from Houston is getting worse. Ex-colleague's sister and family stuck in Europe as can't fly home...
  • ABcrazyABcrazy
    Hi @hunnybunny we are still safe. It's still raining, and the wind has gotten stronger again, but at least Harvey is finally starting to move away. The streets are starting to drain of flood water in my neighborhood. The worst parts seem to be on the north and west sides of Houston at this point with overflowing reservoirs. Although the town just south of here recorded the highest rainfall measurement for the whole metro area at 49 inches, or just over 4 feet (not quite 1.5 meters). It's still rather surreal to try to comprehend. Both airports are still closed due to flooding as far as I know. Your friends might be able to get into Austin or San Antonio, certainly Dallas. No point in trying to get into Houston any time soon unless they have a boat. Then again, even the cruise ships are staying offshore, out of port.
  • KathyKathy
    @ABCrazy happy to hear your still safe , and that Harvey has started to move on! Watching the news again atm, it's so devastating :( I can't fathom how people are going to begin to recover, i really can't! Like finding a place to live, the money to start over, what about the job that had, is it still there Wtf!! it's just unbelievable , i can't imagine! like you said surreal !! how to begin?
    My thoughts my prayers everything is with all o of Texas affected by Harvey. makes our little minor daily complaints seem so selfish in the big picture!

    Nighty night @Pa ♡♡♡♡
