Just spoke with CPT Paul F, my team leader at the battle of Ben Het. He lives in and is in Wharton Texas...says heavy rain and wind is steadily increasing along with mucho lightening. Houses at one end of his street already lost power. His wife's gift shop in Wharton is partially flooded now, as is his yard, and they are still a ways from the brunt of the storm. He had just listened to a local weather report. The weather predictors talked about the storm possibly receding back into the gulf and possibly re-emerging further into East Texas (closer to him) after strengthening again. Last comment he made, a moment ago, was it had been reduced to a CAT 3, but just got raised to a CAT 4 again.

Funny you mention Oklahoma City. I was born N of OK City in Blackwell and spent part of my youth in Tuttle, S of OK City.

they just had a segment on folks trying to leave the city but flooding has the roads and parts of the interstate closed...so NOW folks are trying to leave...and it will only get worse with more rain,loss of power and services.etc... =================================================================== i bet Sunday brunch at the Peabody looks pretty good right now.. youtube.com ====================================================================== not 2.3 million..but you sure can get 8 or so out ( your cousin and his family)...they could have driven north for 12 hours...i bet Oklahoma City has some nice hotels,with A/C, color T V ,and room service.... whoever gets the force of a Cat 4 hurricane and the water and flooding is going to be educated... edit ..Oklahoma City is 444 miles and a 7 hour drive.....a no brainer... Memphis is a 9 hour drive...go see Graceland and stay at the Peabody...
