Lake Houston - first wave took out a sweetgum and wind was easily kicking 60 in backyard and still in front. Living on lake is strange during storms. You can feel the pressure being sucked off the water.

Lost power at 545. Generator is going to be worn out after this one. Keep working!!

My 7 year old storm lover is still sleeping, but will be begging to go "look for damage" soon.

No power and pool is getting close to the edge with no way to drain it without the pump being able to run

My whole home generator is buzzing here in Sienna. Too bad I can't sleep with all the wind noise.

It's going in the woodlands now. Annual roof integrity inspection time..


I got up right at 6, and thought it sounded eerily quiet. In the time it took me to feed the cats, it hit.

Still have power and was approved for a new roof last week.

Just wondering if this meets our hurricane quota and we're good for this season (and the next few).

No power here since about 5:30am. Sounds super nasty outside. Houston about to be underwater.

I'm hoping the tallow tree in front of my house doesn't get finished off after the beating it took in May. I mean, it's a tallow tree, so meh, but it provides excellent shade in the afternoon.

So I guess Herzog fear mongering called it right. All the worst of it dead eyeing Houston.

At least with hurricanes, linemen from out of state have a chance to mobilize in advance of the storm and are ready to move in quickly.

Still coming down good in Westbury 5. Waiting on it to calm down a bit before getting the generator going.

Herzog says hurricane has not weakened and eye is east of El Campo, North of Bay City and west of Lake Jackson/Angleton.

Strongest winds are north of there around Wharton and the East Eyewall is the strongest over West Colombia and he says that is why you have to stay inside and not let your guard up.

Worst is still south of you.

Lost power around 5:55 am in Spring. I hear the buzzing every so often that sounds like it's trying to turn back on, but nothing.

Nerve-wracking watching the trees bend and sway. We've had so much tree damaged in the last year from various storms.

Power has gone off 3 times in the woodlands, hoping we don't lose it for good. Kicking myself that I didn't buy the Costco genny a couple weeks ago

Watching my trampoline, I anchored it and put cinder blocked on the legs and it is still threatening to take off flying.

I'm watching my neighbor's cypress tree, hoping it doesn't do the bend & snap right into her living room.

Just lost power in east Cypress, Louetta & Grant area. We're still in for hours more - the eye hasn't gotten to us yet.

Watching the news, it's amazing watching people plow through pools of water. At least they don't have their flashers on.
