View Full Version : IKE and the Texas Coast Don't mix!!
I know it is really to early to tell but.......... Ike at this time is streaming for the Texas coast!!! We have been very lucky for many years..... Something tells me we are about to get unlucky!!!
Ike Ike Go away !!!!!
sooooo who is staying and who is gonna leave if he heads your direction?
mamajmg 09-09-2008, 06:25 PM Hey M ~ I was just wondering about ya'll and Ike this afternoon! You're much closer than I am!!! Weather report just now is still iffy but seeming that it may veer closer to Galveston area.
Like you I don't know if we can dodge another one. We've dodged it for some time now and our number just might be on this one!! As much as I dread the thought - I don't wish it on anyone else either!
As to if we'll leave - I doubt it. I'd love to escape to the country but know we'd be worried about what's happening at the house. How about you?
Prayers for those in Ike's path! Wherever that may be.
Janice
Aren't you packed and gone already??? Get outta there!!!
Heck no...... I am here an waiting patiently.. ;)
BrandNewGirl 09-10-2008, 04:58 PM Looks like we are gonna even get some 'tropical storm force' winds up here in A-town! Be safe Mo and all others in the path down that'a way!

California Sunshine 09-10-2008, 05:17 PM Be safe Mo and everyone else who may encounter Ike!!!!!!!
I have a feeling this guy is going to suprise a lot of people with where it hits...
BrandNewGirl 09-10-2008, 05:54 PM I'm with ya on that thought...
Are you going to try to ride all of it out, or do any evacuating?
Nance
I am going to ride it out...... That is the plans....
BrandNewGirl 09-11-2008, 09:26 AM Well, BE SAFE!! We don't want to be "Mo-Less"!!
e_wife03 09-11-2008, 09:29 AM Well so far they are only evacuating the coast line and a little inwards, but he is getting stronger and doesn't look like nothing is going to slow him down. If we get a mandatory evacuation then yes we will move up north. got our things packed just in case.
If you go here you can see the evacuation zones: http://www.hcoem.org/HCMap.aspx?P=Evacuation
We will be safe!! We are boarding up and getting ready for this sucker....
From what they are saying they aren't worried to much about flooding where i am because the storm is moving fast enough to just pass through...

BrandNewGirl 09-11-2008, 01:43 PM We're getting some evacuees here in Austin..but they're still telling us here we're going to get major wind and tornados along with the rain. Who knows..they postponed the UT game vs Arkansas, but my son's youth football game is still scheduled for Saturday afternoon...eye rolls!
