Can't reach 2 aunts and an uncle in Port Arthur

One aunt was in a nursing home. Can't find anyone that can give me info on the status.

Other Aunt and Uncle was waiting to be rescued when we lost contact with them. Want to drive to PA but there isn't anyway to get in.

I'm so sorry to hear that, I did see on channel 13 they were evacuating a PA nursing home. Maybe 30 min ago.

I hope they are ok. It will be.

Seems like looting reports in Houston were overblown. That curfew last night created the narrative that it was more serious than it actually was.

My mom has a rent house out there. She called the guy that lives in it and he said nothing has happened so far. But a few hours ago we heard something snap/blow out. I have no clue where it came from but it shook our house a little bit.



Other than that everything is okay.

They need to load up some of those helicopters (that they normally use for wildfire dispersants) with cat litter and drop it over that zone by I10 that Addikks is spilling over.

They're trying a bunch of experimental stuff out over there already.

theres still wildfires out west, most of those resources are out there

The looting was not overblown b ruh. Just on Homestead and Mesa Rd alone on the Northeast side, damn near every business was looted. Beauty Salons, Beauty supply store, gamestop, pawn shop, every business. Its okay to call a spade a spade. Its okay to call out our own people. I hope these mofos get shot in the azz and have to walk with limp the rest of their lives.

I am legit shook at the mess that has been caused by the release of these reservoirs.

I10 and Hwy 6 is done.

I-10 is still passable. Y'all gotta get over the release of the reservoirs (unless your home was flooded by them) because if they failed shyt would be a lot worse.

So the water went down


and we started clean up

The smell

Most of the furniture and textiles have to be thrown out

Car flooded and won't start


Water pushed the fridge open, full of water and wtf has to be thrown out


Floors warped


Carpet and rugs trash

Fire stick remotes gone or water logged


Dishwasher trash


I don't know if my stove even works no power

There was a snail in my room

And a bunch of other stuff including sheet rock and electrical. It seems like we did so much and nothing at all. Trash bin been missing.


I'm still blessed tho

Buy or rent dehumidifiers and air blowers
