Ok guys, first off I have seen firsthand what Katrina did in MS, LA, and AL. Trust me on this, what happened in New Orleans is NOTHING compared to the damage in south LA, and MS. The flooding may have been worse in N.O., but the wind damage on the eastern side of the storm in MS wasn't even comprehendable. We had considerable damage 230-240 miles inland, so people in Houston, you are NOT as safe as you think you are..lol. If the storm keeps pace and hits as a Cat 4 or even a strong Cat 3 then you'll know (hopefully anyway) what I am talking about. If I were you I would pack up what I could and head out of there. This ain't a strong thunderstorm boys, this is nature at it's worst, or the worst we know it is capable of anyway.

So my prayers will be with all of you as you try to hunker down, but it's probably not in your best interest to do so. I'd flee the area. May God have mercy on all of you...seriously.
