It’s been a long night, and it’s not over yet. At times, the rain against the windows sounds like sand hitting the windows. We are still waiting for daylight, which should be in another hour and a half. The weather will still be bad, but at least we will be out of the darkness. This is really an intense storm!

The Calm Before the Storm
It’s a very calm evening,
a time for taking in
the tranquility and peace
before Ike comes ashore.
If only we could bottle this
for use over the next few days.

THIS IS A BIG STORM!
Only a Category 2 hurricane at this posting, the potential storm surge and rain can bring a lot of damage to the Texas Gulf Coast area. The above image is already outdated since the latest projections show the trajectory more east headed for a direct hit on Galveston, then literary following a route up I-45 to Houston on up to Conroe, Texas. We will continue to watch and see if the move east will continue. Click on the above image to get more current local information.
