Welp. Just got data on my work phone. I'm in timbergrove. Truck totaled. House decent amount of damage. Roof. Siding. Gutters. Windows ok. This is bad though in the hood.
anything I can do to help? I'm happy to come by tomorrow if you need some labor.TX04Aggie said:

Neighbor across the street has a 30' pine leaning on another in their backyard. Next door neighbor has a 40' pine tree leaning on their covered patio. My house is in the path if the one next door falls.
Tree crew just showed up across the street. Those guys have balls of steel.

Same. I'm in oak forest. In Katy tonight to get some ac with the toddler and newborn. But will be back tomorrow.
If anyone needs a hand I can bring a chainsaw and a trailer tomorrow afternoon as long as I don't get called in to work
Not surprised due to the compression of the already high winds...Nanomachines son said:

Free firewood at my place. Lost some big tree limbs and a side fence. Neighbor lost a magnolia.
Dang. Magnolias, if it's established, usually flex pretty well and handle wind better than a hardwood tree.

Centerpoint website sucks. **** is a joke
To be fair there's probably a million people trying to access it at the moment.

Probably don't have power.
Nothing is fair in a storm response. These guys are regulated for a reason.
With what power?htxag09 said:

You mean to tell me people are trying to access an emergency notification website in an emergency?!?

Cell phones? I know everyone on my street was when we were out there earlier.
If only people had something they carry around in their pocket they could use to access websites without being plugged into a wall…Guitarsoup said:With what power?htxag09 said:

Update: guy across the street is paying $3500, and guy next door is paying $5000 for their tree removal.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Well damn that was gnarly!
Here in Spring Branch and just missed a couple huge pine tree limbs. There's debris everywhere. Trees down and lawn furniture all over. I've never seen wind like that.
This is one street over

Wow.
How the hell do you get tree guys out at 10PM on any night, let alone on this night?
Pay them somewhere between $3500 and $5000

I'm going to guess $8500 between you and your neighbor.
I got stuck with the kids at Pinchos (by Goode Co Seafood on Gessner and 10) when the storm hit. The power went out and saw some big electrical flashes so we hunkered down in the bathroom. Water started coming under the doors and there was a good amount of their floor covered.
Kids were freaked out for a bit but eventually felt better. Made it home dodging large tree limbs, and flooded intersections. Did a lot of parking lot driving to get home.

So weird that an energy distribution provider should have their data together energy distribution outage ! That's such a tough concept !

Wow.
I got quoted 3300 to put three trees at the curb just yesterday. That's a wild price
Thank yall so much. Will try and start figuring it out tomorrow. What a mess.
Ryan the Temp said:Same for us in the Heights. As soon as trees started going we huddled in the hallway. That **** was crazy.jetch17 said:
This was the first time I've ever actually had the family huddled in a closet near Jersey village - we got rocked
Same. In the heights as well. Lived in Houston my whole life and have been through some weather events but this was the first time I was a bit scared. First time I have ever huddled in hallway.
