      Wow, CAT 4? I feel like we've heard way too little about this one.

        @scottalanmiller It all happened so quick. I first heard about it on Wednesday and then they were just expecting a tropical storm. Yesterday, it was supposed to be a Cat 2. Now it's a Cat 4.

          Our local weather (Lexington, KY) mentioned it was going to gain due to the high water temp - nearly 90 deg. That is a massive amount of energy.

            Thats always been the bad thing about the Gulf. The water stays warm and fuels these things.

                I have already seen one FB post about watching out for alligators... photo of one near a truck

                  @scottalanmiller, @Dominica, @Texkonc, @NetworkNerd, and I are far enough inland that we won't get any thing more than a scattered shower or thunderstorm from one of the arm bands of Harvey.

                  Nice to see that I'm forgotten...

                              Gas here went from $2.19 a gal to $2.39 already...

                              Yes, but that has nothing to do with the refineries.

                                We had this after IKE. Like 30 states worth of lineman and electrical workers. IT was some boys from TN who fixed the lines outside my office.

                                        So far just like but steady rain all day in Waco. Haven't heard of any flooding nearby either.

                                          Not even rain up here. We had a sprinkle this afternoon, but that was it.

                                            MAYSVILLE, Ky. (WKYT) - As Tropical Storm Harvey continues to batter Texas, one Kentucky company announced it will be providing shelter for thousands of people displaced by the storm.

                                            Employees at Emergency Disaster Services in Maysville have spent the past two days packing trailers with clean linens, clean water, food and fuel.
