Hurricane Ike

[JakeK]

Oh man! Ike's more than likely on his way! Who's most definitely in his path?

Looks like the Texas coast had better prepare.

The gas stations here wasted no time in raising the prices by about 30 cents a gallon between my commute to work this morning and the ride home this afternoon. I have to assume that it's because of Ike.

i'll be getting some heavy rains and wind saturday it seems. i guess i should go get some groceries.

[jps]

What else besides beer and chips?

[phlemmy]

Oh, that's all.

Oh, that's all.

What, Texas and no BEEF?!

Hang tight everyone,

Ike had me pretty worried, sorry to say it is on its way to you.

Be safe everyone.

I've got to get home and get ready to hunker down. Most of the supplies that I'll need are already at the house, but there's always needed at the last minute. According to this latest forecast, the center should pass just to the west of my home sometime on Saturday.

Not looking good for you at all, Richard.

It looks like we may just end up with some gusty breezes.

[JakeK]

Hope everything works out, Rich. What Rics are you gonna take with you?

[beatlefreak]

At least it's now down to a category 2 hurricane. Let's hope it doesn't gain strength across the wide expanse of the Gulf.

Best wishes, Richard. I hope Ike turns out to not be so bad.

[johnallg]

Good luck and we'll be thinking of you Richard. Looks like we will get the rains come next week.
