Hurrican Rita seems to be headed for Texas :shock: .....although I'm in Austin, which is pretty inland, we might get winds upto 75mph......its gonna be one windy/rainy weekend. Houston's gonna be hit pretty bad it seems like.....well I'll be hoping for the best. Good news is I'll probably get a holiday tomorrow!!!!! :beer: If it gets too bad wont have internet/electricity for a couple of days in which case :sadbye:
Well.....seems like it wont hit us.....but you never know. There's no evacuation for Austin but Houston is all evacuating......people are coming here or going to dallas so traffic jams are crazy. Went to stock up on water today and the grocery store was swarming with people......they were constantly restocking water.....saw a couple of people with gallons upon gallons of water.....I bought 24bottles of .5liters!!!!
ohhh hell..thats bad! btw..whats the status of rita now? i think it did slow down..no? :think: all the very best! :shock:
thanks for all your concerns.....looks like we wont be getting any of the hurricane problems except for some rains.....and refugees. Anyways Rita decided to head north so we are pretty much out of the danger zone!!!!
Cool..ur really lucky! :grin: but still dont loosen up..u know these hurricanes have no fixed itinerary :
atleast u know its coming those poor souls in orissa knew it only when it hit them we badly need better disaster management
