I am sitting in my apartment in NW Houston and awaiting Hurricane Ike. The forecasts for my area are high winds (70 to 80 mph) and rain from early Saturday Morning to that evening. Winds this speed are not considered dangerous for buildings with foundations. The most likely thing is staying inside for a day for two without power an inconvience.
The other thing happed today is that I went to the grocery store. The shelves weren't completely empty, but the parking lot, the aisles and the local roads were all packed. I swear that I could almost taste the tension in the air. After got some extra last minute water and a few odds and ends it too an hour to checkout. Next time something like this happens I am going to plan ahead and have all essentials days ahead of time.

Wouldn't it be nice to know a long time ahead that things were going to happen so we could plan properly! It'll be an experience that most of us haven't had!
