Quoting EmmyRose: Hard to believe 5 years, Ike and several other TS's have come and gone and Texas still stands.... Yes. It's been a rough ride these past few years. I'm thinking never again would be too soon. But as you say we keep coming back. :) Member Since: Ağustos 24, 2010 Posts: 0 Comments: 3877

Quoting FormerTigergirl: That was a scary night wasn't it.....My son stayed at his house in Beaumont and was absolutely shocked at the devastation the next morning..thanks for posting that You're welcome. I can't imagine having rode out that storm. I saw the after effects and that was bad enough. For years I wondered what it was actually like when it happened. Wasn't much footage out there of the actual storm. I'm guessing because like every other one lately, it came at night. I rode out Humberto at night. And just the sounds were terrifying. All the more so because you couldn't see what was going on. Somewhere I saw a video of the horrifying sounds of Ike. I'll have to find that one again. Get shivers just thinking of it.

That turn to the north was unexpected. Thank goodness we did evacuate all the way to Louisiana. DRM did a blog comparing Rita and Audrey. The biggest difference was the evacuation.

People often mention forgotten storms. Hurricane Rita is not only a forgotten storm, but one of the largest and most intense. Member Since: Eylül 27, 2007 Posts: 1 Comments: 14287
