    Funny thing is I usually buy about 18 gallons of Costco water at a time. It sucks to carry in the car but I hate going back to Costco more than once a month. I'm glad I still have 9 gallons lol from my last trip.

    The satellite appearance of Harvey continues to impress by the hour. This thing looks like it off the races now with regards to intensity. Might be bumped up to 100 mph sustained on the next update.

    Corpus Christi still in major danger right now. We still have to wait and see for us in the Houston area.

    Gas price gouging INCOMING. $2.58 for Unleaded at Navigation and N.Sampson on the board, I quickly left. The gas station a few block is only $2.05. Near my house up north in another county, some gas stations are running out of gas.

    If Houston is gone, then Katy will have been obliterated off the face of the Earth.

    I went to 2 HEB's, a Walmart, and a Target, and there wasn't a single case of water in sight...the shelves got cleaned out

    it's a good thing I bought 3 huge cases of water from Sam's last weekend that I haven't touched :cool:

    I got 1 of the last bags of dog food at Petsmart, I managed to get an extra flashlight, got some fruits, got some cereal, got some snacks, and now I'm about to get some Whataburger

    the lines at the gas station were crazy long, but I filled up my tank

    I hope my power doesn't go out because I'm tryna catch up on some shows on Netflix. Has anybody watched Marvel's the Defenders?

    Doesn't Netflix have an offline download feature?

    I imagine we'll lose power at some point, probably won't be too long.

    The Defenders was very disappointing. One of the things that bugs me about it is how weak Jessica and Luke Cage are. They should be demolishing ordinary people. I guess those kind of special effects are not in the budget, though.

    Back to the hurricane. NHC now has it at 105 mph.
