Do we have anyone here that lives in the greater Houston area that will be affected by Ike? If so, good luck! My thoughts, prayers, and general good-will to you. I hope you,your family, and your Axioms pull through safely.
Seems to be a monster of a storm. As a weather-nut, I'm in awe of the projected path of wind & rain from that bad boy. Absolutely wild that serious tropical-storm force winds could extend all the way to Oklahoma. And it may dump as much as 4 or 5 inches of rain on *me*, in
Illinois, by the time it's all said-and-done.
Wow.
I don't know how those of you who live in hurricane-prone areas deal with it!
