can you believe that they suspect that there are over 20,000 people still in the Galveston area that was under mandatory evacuation? It's going to be like Katrina in New Orleans all over again! It's so scary and so depressing.

How do you expect to be affected?

It looks like we have one more (kind of large) band in yellow (tornado watch/warning) to pass over us, otherwise, it's the white stuff--so winds & rain.

The lights went out at home while I was gone, but they were back up when I got home. Many people where I teach lost their power this morning and trees came down in the area, too.

yes, very gross.

oh, they arrested 2 women for looting in Baton Rouge yesterday--they were stealing copper wire out of downed power lines. How CRAZY can you get?

I know--either of the storms (Gustav and Ike) has already hit us personally worse than Katrina did.

which is probably why we have so many Texas evacuees right now!

LOL--they don't KNOW that we are still devastated and have no power in many places and have no shelters.

I would be doubtful of hotel rooms, too!

apparently it's more than just one band, but I guess color is dependent on whose map it is.

We'll get a bit more tonight and tomorrow it looks like and we are under tornado watch (have been all day).
