Live half a mile from it. We didn't get a drop of rain here, no surge to speak of. Good to go.

I am assuming sheltering in place and having a running AC to turn off will be difficult for most in the area to do....

If there's anything I learned from the explosion in Beirut, it's that you should definitely stay close by when an unknown chemical is burning out of control.
You don't have to tell me...this idiot was across the street from my parents house.

That looks a little close to the highway for Sasol. Looks like Phillips 66.

No confirmation but I saw a video from a reporter earlier on twitter who said it was BioLab.

Dire risk. Stay at home and keep your kids out of school until polls show that the whole situation in Trump/Abbott's fault.

Text I got from my buddy who's place is in Johnsons Bayou about 20 miles west of Cameron....

"It's looking good on the west side of the Calcasieu, on the east side not so much"

He fled to Mississippi so this is not ground zero information first hand information.

not good for some people. That looked like Spicer's Marina in Hackberry in one of those shots. Popular spot for fisherman in the area.

I'm guess with the mandatory evac on the island they didn't have the staff to open. I guessing by this weekend they should be good to go.

Club will be open tomorrow. Email should be going out later today.

Looks like the storm knocked out power for a whole bunch of Entergy customers - including the ones in The Woodlands. Big outage up here.

They are doing rolling brown outs to help support the areas covered by entergy that got damaged.
