Not fun but we survived. Of course the hurricane was only a category 2 storm when it went into Galveston and was a one when it came through Houston. This storm according to the weather folks could anywhere from a 3 to a 5 which means coming into the Houston area it will be a 2 or a 4. Not good for the home team.
