Upgraded to a category 4, we are just inside the area predicted to get anywhere from 20-40 inches of rain-yikes!
Keep that baby donkey safe:) |

My mom is in Seadrift but she left today. We have sat out a few of these but nothing this big. I would not be surprised if it levels her house. The amount of rain fall they are predicting is insane.
Been watching the weather maps and Seadrift is just getting hammered to death..
I had looked for a live stream but nobody had one set up. Port O'Connor does and things look windy but did not see any surge yet. And they just upgraded to cat 4.
Rock port and Corpus seem to be getting all the wind but Port Lavaca is getting the storm surge.
Where about is Seadrift? They reported that if you stayed in Rockport to please write your name and SS number on your arm in a sharpie: (
It's on San Antonio bay, 18 miles west of Port O'Connor, about 20 miles southish of Port Lavaca. |

:). All my animals are up out of the weather, my house and barn both built up 4' and I am not in a flood plain although the back of my property is. I would be lying if I said I was not getting nervous. If the rains happen in the amounts predicted there are going to be areas flooding that people thought could never flood. My heart already hurts for those who loose their homes to floods and have no flood insurance because it has never been needed before. We do not have flood insurance :(. |

I have been texting with her mom, they live in Wharton but expect to be OK. I told her I have trailer hooked up and ready if they feel they need to get the horses out. Lauren has her horses at the vet clinic where she works in Waller, they should be OK. |
