I'm right there with you Chris. I drove by your house earlier this morning but couldn't stop. It's pretty hectic here and Galveston. Long lines at the gas stations (one's that have gas) and grocery stores, no fast food places open  , and mad traffic everywhere. I'm gonna hunker down and tough it out.
btw this was the older projected path and it seems to have gotten more narrow right in my area as you can see from chris's post.  | |

Be safe out there guys. They've already postponed all major sporting events out there this weekend. It's looking like it's gonna be harsh. | |
