So again you guys, you can see that I'm dancing infront of the secondary target region Hurricane Ike is barreling straight at. Again, through some odd, god-sent power of deflection, we are now just outside the Hurricane's wildly boomerang-ing carnage path, which seems a bit unnatural at this point. It's hovering at a category II, but will almost certainly be a category III late tonight. I've provided blips on the map for refference, so you can see who's going to get hosed and who might not. Red= San Antonio (where Raf lives : D ) Yellow= Austin (The state capitol) Orange= Dallas (which hopefully will hose out the crappy cowboys!) Blue= Galveston (Which is unavoidably going to get the messiest end of the stick) Green= Houston (Uhhh.... Houston? We have a problem.) * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * So now that you know we might be possible hurricane target practice, I again come to inform you that in light of recent suspicions of 40 mph winds, and heavy tropical storms, I again might not be on, considering the power lines around here aren't built to withstand hurricane-force windspeeds, along with massive flooding of up to 2-3 inches in some places (meh maybe, but we're texans. We don't get that much rainfall 3 months, luck withstanding. The deepest things we've ever been in are pools!!)

They say it might hit category three, but I hope not. Still keeping up on The news right now I will check back her soon. And I just heard there is a fire burning, though I do not know where.

I am leaping with joy because it has droped to a category 1 storm! Folding is still high but wind speeds are also low, but there is a rising alert on small tornados. But I am very happy things are settling down though its not over yet.

Lucky for me here in San Antonio, we literally saw nothing of it, save maybe a small breeze of cool air. While I can't say the same for The lost City of Atlantis Galveston Island, we're good. Unfortunately, Ike is projected as hard-***-ing through most of central North America, and possibly spawning several tornados with a h3ll of an attitude. Thank goodness we're safe! Keep your eyes peeled, anyone in Central NA. You may be next!! D:
