I have 11 friends and their three pets from the coast sheltering with me since Thursday-Friday. Spent the previous week prepping for it "just in case". Thank goodness. An amazing amount of TP gets used!
News is trickling in to them from their contacts still on the Gulf. It is looking mighty grim folks. Many missing at this point. Some will turn up and we do hope all are soon accounted for. Estimates were that 40% of Rockport did not evacuate. That area is pretty devastated. Tornadoes have been running amok all through the area as well, increasing the damage. Over 2000 water rescues in just Houston so far. Over 13 ft of water on Houston roads near the bayous (big gullies).
So glad you are safe for now Kiki! Praying to those water gods, and anyone else who will listen, to kick this storm into gear and move its soggy butt away! Be safe and well.
