My son in Houston says they cut their way out of the neighborhood yesterday The subdivision was known for large trees and he says that every other house has a major tree down. Funny because they all fell toward the southwest, unfortunately sometimes southwest was where the house was. Neighbors with chain saws cut up what they could and dragged them out of the middle of the streets so they could get out to the main road. He says there are so many trees down that in the future the place is going to look a lot different than it did before.
He thinks because of the trees they won't have electricity again for weeks or more, meaning it may be a while before we hear from other folks down there. My son found a FEMA trailer in Tomball for ice and bottled water, says there are a couple of gas stations that had electricity and are open but they have quarter-mile lines. There's not enough ice to chill beer, so for the foreseeable future it's gong to be meat on the grill and tequila. So for him things aren't THAT bad. For others I don't know. |
