2. Are you anywhere in the path?

I'm assuming you're in Texas?

5. Not at the coast. But it is expected to hit us as a strong tropical storm...

We're expecting 50-60mph winds and 4+" of rain.

Looks like it's going to make landfall in Corpus Christi. Get ready down there!

8. Looks like the coastal areas should run for cover.

Be safe, everybody.

3. I am getting ready!

There talking about 100MPH wind gusts in San Antonio. I think I'll take Friday off to prepare.

4. I have an old, old acquaintance that moved from Salt Lake to

San Antonio. He was telling me how mild the weather is there. Right after that they had an ice storm.

Now this. I think I will just stay here in the midwest, thank you very much.

6. I'll vouch for the ice storm

But that was very rare. The last big snowfall in San Antonio was in 1985.

We are not, however, in Tornado Alley, like most of North Texas.

We do get tropical storms through here every two or three years, but generally no hurricane force winds. This one looks bad.

7. Can't wait for hurricane season to be over
