Yes, we have one coming right at us.
I'm staying as I did with Alicia in 1983, a cat 3.
Expecting winds of 75-100 mph for an extended period of time, maybe 4-8 hours.
Also 5-10 inches on rain, could be more if the storm moves slowly.
They also expect tornadoes, not the large ones, but I hope we don't see any of those.
Probably will lose power, in 1983 we lost power for 5 days, during summer and it isn't very pleasant, hot and humid.
The city evacuated more than 1 million and everything went as planned, a little pre-planning really works.
