Make note to self. For next huricane, buy battery operated fan.
Well I am still here. :) It is 12:45 AM now. And it is HOT. It finally started to rain and I had to close the windows. So no air at all. aargh!
The wind is howling like you would hear in a scary movie. The rain is light still, nothing hard, although according to the radio, the hard stuff should be in my part of town in about 30 minutes. The eye of the storm has just crossed into Galveston. Theyh are really catching it there. Hope those left in Galveston are OK. I do not know why anyone would try to ride this one in Galveston, but they were warned.
Hmmm.... a new noise. Now along with the howling, there is whistling. Just heard something on the news. They said that you should not open windows or doors. They were saying that it creates a vacuum that could actully cause the roof to be blown off. Guess I am lucky I closed them before it got bad and I wouldhave raised the roof. That would not have been fun. I was opening the door and standing in the doorway so I could look out and get some fresh cool air. So OK, I'll just sweat.
OK, that's it for now. More later.
