They are calling for 39 inches of rain on some areas here.

When the rain is measured in feet, it's gonna be a problem...

True.

I think we are supposed to get the hurricane force winds tomorrow around noon. They say 12 hours of the winds. Then the rain to deal with...


Been through several bad, bad floods, couple of tornadoes. But this is my first hurricane.

Might as well start with a good one.

I'm GTG here. Elev, is 203 at the house.

No creeks on the ranch with potential to flood. Water will run through here pretty good though. House is on high ground.

They are saying the storm surge will be 9-12 feet.

I wouldn't worry about anything but trees then. That's what always causes problems in areas that haven't been hit in a long time. Flooding is the big deal with hurricanes, although the millions inconvenienced by power outages usually whine the loudest.

Thanks Dan...just listened. In Sabine moving boats around all day. Preparing for these things sometime suck more than remediation.

Let's hope that surge stays low. That's what REALLY hurts.

Yeah, and we have lots of those SOB's here at the ranch. Post oaks, black jacks and live oaks.

I don't worry about the live oaks too much, but those post oaks and black jacks are a different story.

When the ground gets saturated, they fall over. But, one good thing... The past couple of years it's been saturated lots, and I already took care of those that fell. I'm sure there will be some though.

Got my big tractor and that beast of a jaw attachment ready... It's pretty good at moving trees. Got my chainsaw ready too.
