During the day yesterday, the cone of death moved more in line with the Megalopolis where I live, so we're expecting hurricane conditions this weekend. The conventional wisdom is, "run from water, hide from wind." Depending upon how your crow flies, I'm 50 to 70 miles away from the coast, well clear of the storm surge. So, I'll be hiding, not running.
While I do, hide that is, I hope to throw out some pictures, video and narrative of what it's like in Spring, Texas during the storm--hopefully very regular and rapid updates when I'm not sleeping. So, check out hurricaneikeblog.blogspot.com and tell all your weather nerd friends.

I'll be checking that hurricaneIke blog out as I remember leaving town during Rita! that was crazy!!22 hours to drive to Austin!
So I'll be watchn from sunny California coast.. :)
rockon` and be careful.
Fingers crossed!
Be careful down there, bro!!!
power outages from windblown and tree-fallen power lines are probably your biggest threat. my parents down in RGV were without electricity for 5 days after Dolly earlier this summer -- made it unbearable, esp at night to try to sleep w/o A/C.
good luck!
our thoughts and prayers are with you, bro. take care of the fam.
Stay safe out there. Hope Ike turns out to be meek. Hurricane Bob destroyed my family's boat in '91 – and tossed around 300 other boats in the harbor. It's amazing the force that hurricanes can produce.
Thinking of you and yours as Ike approaches. Stay safe!!!
I'll be there.
Stay safe.
Yikes, well what the hell do you do if there's wind AND water??
