Lots and lots of folks are stuck on the freeway. A friend left his house at 8pm last night and he still wasn't out of Houston at noon today. Gas lines are three hours long. Folks are running out of gas and walking.
The storm jogged a little north which means a lot better situation for me. Instead of a category 5 it appears I will get more like a 1 or 2 at the house.
Our riedout team at work abandoned ship. Another local fireman I talked to yesterday said that the Astrodome was their Alamo. Which meant as the storm grew bigger and they decided to abandon ship they were supposed to make their way to the Dome.
Glad I'm in San Antonio.
