And I'm preparing and WE aren't even going to get anywhere near the worst of it. I am usually very intuitive and I have a very bad feeling about this one. I would love to be wrong. I have many good friends in Corpus, Brownsville and Houston.

I hope people are heeding the warnings and taking proper precautions. This is not a time for anyone to try to be a hero. Mother Nature always wins.

Everyone, please be safe!!!
