*yawn* well that was exciting. i passed out drunk last night about 11:30. the most exciting part was that i woke up with a crippling headache when the power started flickering on and off. my wind meter shows that jack **** happened. i was throwing cigarette butts on my back porch because i took my ashtray missle inside. there are still a bunch of cigarette butts out there.
oh yeah...i live spring cypress 1.5 miles off 249

40MPH winds, barely a drizzle, and I'm gonna have to water my grass tomorrow 
The power flickered on and off many times last night, several brownouts, but no power loss for more than a few seconds. It did blow up my A/C unit, but a quick fix at 4:00am with my trusty soldering iron and we're back in business

In fact I'm aware of several gas stations that raised their prices from $2.68 to $2.99 in their honor. I expect the price to drop back after they return to H-town.

We're fine here in South Houston. We still have power here at our shop. It went off and back on all night long. Our building next door doesn't have power. 2 of our 3 transformers have blown. We have plenty of food and water for several days. We don't have power at our home in Pearland.
It did get pretty nasty here around 2:30 - 3ish
Glad everyone is safe.
