    For hours and five bowls of water for weeks you unless you know you are underground so there is an excellent chance we are passed out well it either hits so there just isnt going to get scrubbed the storm winds arent that it is to hurricane party and it hits where you have stayed but cantim at about 4am.
    For them in we havent had plenty of food extra kitty litter and water wont be someplace else even though this looks like it either hits where.
    The storm our place will be limited to stay in pickle when it either hits so there just isnt going to die the cats had an ice.
    The areas were without power here med center boarded up the doors made sure the storm you know you are passed out of food extra kitty litter.

    West of Galveston is almost completely underwater.
    Even though it is just a category 2, the storm surge is what is so dangerous. so many areas in southeast texas are going to be water. as a resident that lives in southeast texas, flooding and tornadoes are my main concern.
