Everybody post up here to let everyone know how you are doing and how everything is in your part of town.

We are ok here in Ncaogdoches, having to report this from my office here at SFA. I still have no power at my place and trees are down everywhere all over town. I checked in with my parents in New Caney and they said things dont look good but there house is ok and dad is about to crank the generator and get things goin.

Many of you know me but many of you dont but I am sure I have probably raced with you a time or two. Hope everybody is staying safe there in the Houston area.

If for some reason you are not able to watch the news but are able to get on the internet, I was sent this link and you are able to watch all four Houston news stations at once. http://www.maroonspoon.com/wx/ike.html

Checkin In - Retransmit!

Well, we survived the storm up in Cypress. Lost power and some trees, but nothing on our house or on our property. Reporting in from my parents place in Brenham where they have power.

Hope everyone is OK and made it through the storm OK.

Be safe, even though the storm has passed.

Talked to CJTAMU yesterday - they are all good. No house, property or vehicle damage to speak of and of course, still without power. Although he was saying that power is all on around him, including the school across from his house. So it should not be too long before he is back on. Said he is going to work today and might be on to post up.

Any one heard from Biffster or Trey?

Nik and his family are good - heard from him and they have a few trees down, roof damage and some siding issues, but nothing too bad. Still no power where he is.

I'm here. No damage to my house. My family is in good health. No power, and no water. I am online because I am at work at Hobby Airport. Lots of downed, broken, and leaning power polls. Thank God for the great weather we are having after the storm.

Saturday morning around 2am we lost power/water. Thankfully Sunday afternoon we had running water again! We finally had the power turned back on Tuesday Night around 7:30pm. Most of the NW side of Houston has power, but it is still real spotty. All I know is 4 Days with out power Sucks!!!!

I still have no power or water. Still driving over a power line from a snapped pole to get out of my subdivision. Most of Livingston got power today but hopefully I'll only be without power for a few more days. We got hit pretty hard, but thankfully I haven't seen too much serious damage. There's a few buildings that got the roof blown off and some tin storage buildings that got torn up pretty good but that's about it.

Lloyd, you know what the wind speed was on the lake?

No I don't, but i am sure by the end of the day I can find out.

Also Kevin a fraternity brother and I are taking my parents some supplies on Friday (Gas and Ice), is there anything you need?

 

[Gary]

There you are! Glad to see you are OK bro! Any damage to you or property?

PD2

Not really bro. Lost some shingles and siding and still dont have a phone or internet. This is a good time to be a "Renter"! lol

 

[SwayOveride]

Lloyd, you know what the wind speed was on the lake?

Kevin from what I can find out the highest sustained winds were 117 mph and the highest gusts were clocked at 135 mph. I am going to do a little more calling around and see if those are accurate.

Thats probably pretty accurate Lloyd. I had about 125 mph winds on Houstons west side and I was thinking yall were getting something simular due to the slapping of the dirty side. Most of my wind came from the west so I think I was seeing what had allready passed north of me.

 

[SwayOveride]

I figured they were accurate because I was pretty sure they would be around the Hurricane Rita level. Hurricane Rita packed winds of around 117 mph at the dam.
