My house is right off of Galveston Bay.

The storm surge is predicting at 25 feet of water.

We are 12 feet above sea level, I have already evacuated to Cypress. My dad still hasn't evacuated. Dumb a_ _.

[DaveTaylor]

Galveston is going to be no more if it continues it's course :( sorry to hear.

Images from space in general are amazing what ever they are looking at!

They are fine, uncle drove around in his car yesterday to charge his phone (hey why not?!) also because they have no power and no water, the pressure has dropped due to the pipe getting burst in there area. They also have a curfew aswell at that moment for showers etc. But here are some images of things that I saw (in one piece) whilst I was there:
