Spent the day building a cover for the generator and reinforcement for the garage. The code here is definitely nowhere near what Florida is currently doing.

Alot of people here are not taking this seriously. It is predicted (again) to strengthen overnight.

Wish I could lend you a hand but that would leave me with none. I wish the best to all of you that might be affected.

I got the word this morning to get geared up. I'm on a 2 hour depature notice with another 7 ERT members from my department for a 15 day deployment to the coastal area of Texas. Hopefully it will not be neccessary to go but it is looking pretty bad. There are many potential victims sheltered in place so it could be a real mess.

So far the winds aren't too bad, but conditions are rapidly deteriorating.

Thanks for the kinds words everybody.

Jim.....If you get deployed, you can crash here at the house with some of my brother officers from the PD in FL who are also supposed to be heading this way.

Back up here....it's up in Roman's neck of the woods now.

Hope Tom and Tony are doing OK.

Major damage south, especially Galveston and surrounding cities. We were very lucky out where we are.

I drove to storage this AM and the SSPs are AOK also.

Everything is OK here on the West side. I road it out and only lost a section of fence that was replaced in 15 minutes.

I hope everyone came out OK...

Let me know if you need anything. Have a friend who is an LCRA Police Officer who was deployed to your area yesterday.

Officer Tom Kingery
Horseshoe Bay PD

Will do, Tom. Thanks.

A buddy from DEA in FL (we worked the road together at the PD for about 10 years) may be headed out as well. We'll all have to get together at some point if we can.

Glad to hear you faired well, too Matt. I think the West side definitely saw a little lighter than what went through town.

We only lost power for about 7 hours, which was a huge surprise. We usually lose power at the house everytime the wind blows during a thunder-storm.
