It's still a tropical storm right now, but by time it hits tomorrow it could very well be a low-grade hurricane.



It's supposed to hit a very vague "somewhere between the coast of Texas and Louisiana" but the current projected path should hit somewhere in my area. Given it's low grade nature, I seriously doubt anything bad will come of this (we've certainly gone through worse here, and unlike New Orleans we're above sea level), but I wouldn't be surprised if the power gets knocked out at some point.


Think I may go buy some cheap beer this evening before the storm hits. Could be a fun night!

I'm liking that beer idea though.

Wife call from the store a bit ago. She had to go from milk and bread. There has already been a run on water and what not in Cypress. Silly people.

Enjoy the day off, Cheese, what's the big deal?

My work apparently doesn't see any concerns, it's business as usual tomorrow.
