Did a pre-emptive strike on a few limbs that were a little too close to my house for comfort and brought in a bunch of old towels to put by the doors if there's more water than expected.

About to do as much laundry as possible and then hunker down for the duration.

If you have any kind of patio, bring in anything light or that could act like a projectile with enough wind.

I've been after Entergy for months to clear some of the power lines. 3 people have come out and said they will be trimmed but of course didn't trim them as well as fix the anchor wire for one of the poles on the property. Here's to hoping they don't cause any issues this go round.

Howdy Ags,

Recent graduate here who just moved to Houston for the first time. I haven't experienced a Houston hurricane before. I live in an apartment and not a house. If any fellow ags have some advice for me about how to prepare that would be awesome. Thank yall!


Fill your blinker fluid.
Get dressed in a bear costume.
Drink a lot.
Profit


Oh, and be sure to drink at least a half gallon of bleach per day.

I'm set with all of the normal household checklists, so I'm doing the smart thing and going to a bar for some day drinking.

Also, get a few of the big bottles of water, drink or make ice cubes a little from each, and freeze them. They'll keep your fridge / freezer cold in case of a lengthy power outage.

I reported three dead 100' foot pines last March and the contractors are so backlogged they won't bring the bucket trucks until November. Two next to electrical lines and one between the house and garage.

Stick a bucket outside if you don't want to fill your tub. Water will be falling from the sky.

I was just at HEB trying to exchange a propane tank that had expired and Uhaul wouldn't refill. (no propane, but I don't plan to need it).

No carts available and bread/water limited to 2 per family.

Drink at your own risk, just dont expect a bunch of sympathy here when your bowels become a petri dish and you are spewing liquid from your butthole for days. All you had to do was fill up a bunch of vessels right now to store perfectly fine water.


Butt piss.


I laughed WAY too hard at this comment

Not trusting this at all, but wanted to see if anyone was watching, Apple's weather app is forecasting the storm to move back south into Mexico. Anyone else seeing anything different?

The flasher brigade was out in force on 610 just now. Must've been 20 of them in a line.

I actually keep meaning to change my username and go through all the Agtag crap. I ended up creating this one years after forgetting my old one and not wanting to bother trying to recover it.

Driving outbound from the 610 are on 290 yesterday during a heavy rain.

Flashers as far as the eye could see.

Probably 4 years ago they were driving alone with their flashers on, while wearing a mask.

You just have to drop off your Fish Camp name tag and your Aggie ring into Liucci's mailbox and they will get you an AgTag.
