Hurricane Ike

[NgoFcukinWay]

So what do you guys have planned?

If it comes down to it, I'll probably hightail my ass up to College Station with my gf, or take the uber small backroads and head to Dallas or Austin. I'm starting to pack some emergency stuff just in case.

Knowing Houston (or Texas for that matter), we'll probably get some pressure from the west that'll move the storm east and smack the Texas/Louisiana border once again.

man, if the hurricane hits good luck and have a safe trip to your destination

 

[noah89t]

come to DFW

 

[Reign_Maker]

Ike come here! I neeeeeeeed you!

 

[NgoFcukinWay]

EEK! Houston's in the middle of that spread for Saturday. All hell's probably gonna break loose come Wednesday if Ike stays on that same general path. I wonder if Tina's gonna follow up pretty soon. :biglaugh::biglaugh:

come to DFW

It's tempting. Got family up in Richardson. The trek up to DFW taking the backroads is gonna be uber long though. But we shall see.

I'm staying put! Have a generator and all that shit... Hurricane party!

Remember all the people on the highway during rita? More people died from heat stuck in traffic than the storm.

 

[NgoFcukinWay]

I remember that garbage. I'm glad I stayed home. Most of the streets were hella empty the following day. Looks like Ike's making a funky turn north as soon as it hits the Texas coast. For the most part though, it looks like we're getting the dirty side of the storm. And when I mean we, I mean you guys on the southwest and possibly west side of town.

 

[Bluechulappa]

Yup, does look like we will see the dirty side. Three more days to live :/ jk

 

[NgoFcukinWay]

I think I might high tail it outta here tomorrow after class. lol.

 

[suprakid24]

it was going straight to corpus and we were going to go to the north west somewhere but now it looks like it's going to hit more north, so idk

Best thing to do is put as much land between you and the ocean as as soon as they make landfall they lose strength...

 

[Facime]

I hope my ex roommates house, by some freak occurance of nature, is the single solitary casualty of the storm.


I kinda wish I was there just to experience it, but you guys stay safe and get the hell out ok?

 

[Bluechulappa]

Woot! It's coming here... The gas stations and grocery stores are already packed. We filled all our gas tanks up and generator is on stand by. The storm is proving to be bigger than first thought and there are rumors it may HIT as a 4

We will see. PPL say stay and be smart

Haha do you have a wife man? I saw this woman at HEB with Ravioli and and a bunch of beer

 

[noah89t]

i bet texas will see many tornadoes spawn from this storm.

 

[NgoFcukinWay]

Probably will. News says that the hurricane could be a category 4 by the time it hits the coast, but it'll be a category 3 for sure. I'm heading up to College Station in about an hour to spend the weekend with my gf, so if there's anyone in CS, hit me up.

 

[Bluechulappa]

Well as of now its not looking as strong, it's a 2 and is expected to hit as a weak 3. Who really knows ya know!

Something I do know, this is Katy, Texas Lowes Lumber department this morning 9/12/08
