We still have power in Spring Branch.

It's been flickering all morning and I've got the generator and window units setup and on standby.

Lost power in 77345 around 5:45 this morning. Generator kicked on and I went back to sleep. Wind isn't too bad but does have some pretty good gusts here and there. Hopefully this is as bad as it gets.

I would unplug your TVs and computers. Surges are not good for your equipment.

I worry about some of these bayous and creeks coming out of their banks more than anything.

Go outside and remove the cap from your sewer clean out. Better to have sewage back up in your yard than in your house.

It looks like this:

Starting to really get blasted in our part of Spring. Maybe the biggest gusts so far.

And turn your AC off until you have stable power. I lost a capacitor during power surge.

Sewage backing up in my apartment during ike was one of the larger problems I had.

I'm newer to hurricanes… but I'm guessing once the eye passes it's back to chaos right?

My phone would like to tell you all goodnight. We'll be back sometime after I can charge it in my truck.

And I shall be alone with my thoughts. Wish me well.

Not quite as bad. The NE quadrant of a hurricane is the worst, the east side is called the dirty side but things will be less intense as it moves north from your position. If you're going to get hit by a hurricane, ideally you want the eye to pass east of you.

Glad you are ok. I understand the what if, as my parents had this in April, but hit the house. It could have hit their side of the house.

great advice. So far it's some seepage past the wax seal in our half bath, but otherwise the toilets just aren't flushing.

I'll go pull the clean out cap once these 30mph gusts chill out. My cleanout is directly under one of my three oak trees that are throwing branches all over the yard.

After derecho tree crews were going to the highest bidder in the heights. Heard quotes from $4000-6000.
