HOOOOOOOLY COW!!!!! That storm was unreal nasty. If those were 80 mile an hour winds, I am sure glad I wasn't here to witness Rita. I am in Orange and we have no power. I'm on my battery on laptop and sitting in my car listening to the radio. They are saying 100,000 people without power. Do not know when we may get power back. Hope it will be soon.

For the guy who asked, Orange was hit pretty hard. Lot's of debris, fallen trees, limbs etc. My yard is littered with it. I heard about the death in BC. A guy was under his carport watching the storm and it collapsed on him. This storm came in the same way Rita did. The wind was blowing the same direction.

I hope everything is ok in the Triangle and that everyone is safe...

Looks like yall have a lot more to worry about than football tomorrow night.

Liberty county is unscathed....

They sure did cancel school early yesterday here in Dayton...

The sun is coming out, and the kids are getting a beautiful day off.

Good luck in getting the power back over there.

Hopefully the electrical crews can get yall up and running soon.

God Bless

Man, that hurricane came upon you guys so fast.  I hope everybody weathered it okay.  Only bright spot is that it moved through quick as opposed to stalling over the area.  Will say a prayer for the Golden Triangle area.  Hope everything gets back to normal as quickly as possible.
