kicker

16th street and green avenue are underwater in orange. It is actually white capping by Weinershnitzel.

Guys, they just launched a boat from the stark museum in Orange, and I have the pics to prove it. This is not a joke. They are riding around downtown Orange in a boat!!!! We also have people trapped on their roofs and in attics in Bridge City. We cant get to them. Why dont people LISTEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im not trying to be funny, but we just saw a bouey floating down elm in front of the building.

Wakesford park in North Vidor is reporting many roofs missing. An OST is under water. Remember guys this is the info coming to us by emergency contact. We havent seen this with our eyes. We are hunkered down in the EOC. These reports are legit though.

Water is rising very fast here in downtown Orange. Pray for the people in BC.

We will have hur. force winds until atleast 8am right now. Looks like the leavee is trying to hold in PA, but BC is in trouble guys.

As I get them i will post. We cant get anyone in there right now, not even the coast guard. We are still getting very strong hurricane winds and rain in Orange at the moment. The only info we have is coming from emerg calls.

WISH PEOPLE WOULD HAVE LISTENED!!! Bridge City is VERY Very bad right now. We are getting emerg calls as I type. Parts of Vidor is also in trouble right now. I will have updates. Book it looks like our worst fear is happening. And we cant get to them right now. People need to listen.

The leavy in PA is being breached right now gust are reaching triple digits in Bmt and Orange.

If anything happens I will give yall updates. I am at an EOC so I get up to the minutes update. Im not trying to scare anyone, but we are going to get this for atleast 4 more hours and the surge is coming. Sustained winds at 78 mph at Sabine pass gusts to 87. We are getting pelted at downtown Orange. Making landfall at Galveston as we speak. We are about to get a VERY nasty band in about 15 min. I will keep yall updated. By the way, BC has waist deep water on 87.

Well, we shall see. Remember we havent seen the worst of it yet. it still hasnt got here. There is a double eyewall now. one side is heading for sabine pass right now. Also the winds still havent changed yet but they are about to. So here comes the water. And also we will have tropical storm conditions all day tommorrow. So I wouldnt drive into it.

Winds havent changed yet, the real stormsurge hasnt hit us yet. Its not a walk in the park right now either. Plus, it looks like all of Groves is out of power.

No, the Gov. is still sticking to 17ft surge. We just got off the 930 conference. When the winds change to SE it will come. NWS is predicting us to start getting hurricane force winds at about midnight and sustain for 6 hours.

I hear ya! We are out of city limits so should be okay, but just in case, have the boat tied to the fence post outside the back door! I know that sounds like a joke, but its a good idea.

I will say this, if you live in Bridge City....GET OUT!!!!! or get a boat.

Man, you just like to bring on the bad news dont ya? Dont be so pessimistic. ??? What? Pessemistic? I am relaying info from the government. Would you like me to put some spirit sprinkles on top to make you feel better? lol. YES!!!! haha, well let me get my web cam. lol! No, but this is a serious storm. I hope it wont be that bad at all. Im just relaying info from the conference calls, not my opinion.

Governers office just said 30ft Galveston and 20ft Jeff. and Orange. Counties

Im on the conference call at the EOC right now. 17ft surge in orange and 15ft in Beaumont

Im thinking landfall at Crystall beach/ High Island. I also think most of the south of I10 will be underwater from PA to Orange. Here we go again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im here with my father. Were staying at the Orange County EOC.

you want to know the real truth?? We are about to take this thing up the ying yang!!!!

No i am not an official

All of the resources were shiped way down south if you havent noticed venom, we are always being overlooked by the state. if you want to go then go dammit. or run for office. then u will truly see what stress is about

Ok ive been sitting here reading all this and it pisses me off. if u want to leave then leave. 99% of yall have no idea what is involed in a mandated evac. the decisions that our officials make are from the government not the weather chanl who wants to sell advertising. everyone needs to chill. they will make the best decision by the situation. if yall had any clue what r local officials go through yall would keep yalls mouth shut.
