thanks everyone for all the ideas, and to everyone else in Rita's path, I wish everyone well and hope it misses you :'(

They announced today its the 3rd Strongest Hurricane ever in the atlantic Basin, far strong that Hurricane Celia that hit Corpus Christi 30 years ago.

At the moment the hurricane's straight path is pretty much headed straight where i live on, on Mustang Island, in Port Aransas, which is 30 minutes away from Corpus Christi, when hurricane celia ripped through it made a natural channel, and the only protection we have from the storm surge is the 10 foot SAND DUNES we have lined up on the beach, which are all natural, but the hurricane is already Cat 5.....and it isnt even halfway throrugh the gulf.

If we are lucky....for those of us in Texas anyways....the high pressure system thats in Texas will move down and push the hurricane farther towards New Orleans.....sorry to say but it would save so much more trouble to hit that are since almost everyone is already gone and the damage has been done....but everyone can agree another coastal area down would skyrocket gas prices, since the Texas are of the gulf is the major Oil producer.

Anyways, i still have tons of more boarding and securing in the area to do tomorrow, so im going to go off to sleep. Thanks guys.

good luck, baphometslayer, I hope you don't get it too bad. We're all sending good thoughts down that way.

I am in the position to where we are far enough into texas that we'll get some bad weather, and the power might go off, but we don't have to evacuate.

Thanks for all the positive thoughts. Fortunately for Houston and me the latest track has Rita moving more towards the east, and keeps us on the western edge of the storm:

Unfortunately this puts other folks more in danger. It's incredible how quickly my anxiety level changes as the projected track shifts just a few 10s of miles. I should be fine with my credits now. The admins would probably be understanding anyway so that's good to know.

I wish you well sandbox, with the projected path moving more that way it puts me out of any serious danger, living 40 miles from Corpus Christi.

I hope that you can make it out safely, as it was stated that evacuating in Houston would be a problem due to the major traffic.

I wish everyone well.

I think this person should have this hold. And hope the best for you. This storm will be bad we can all see so we hope the best for you. I do think this person should freeze there acount. Hope for the best for you and everyone in its direction.

This is one of the things where a member should get helped by the admins in my opinion, and I wish you good luck with the hurricane (As far as you can say good luck)

Hi:

Oh, good luck to you.....hope everything is ok.

That brings up an interesting problem. There are probably other members here from Louisiana and or Texas who had to evacuate and then find themself without internet access.

Hopefully, the admins have some way of knowing who is from the hurricane zone.
