Oh yeah, im looking at the news right now, and the water is on land from what i see. Dont know how severe it is though. In Sugar Land, ALL I HEAR IS WIND. so far no rain from what i hear. But it should be coming. Im hoping its nothing major.

Yeah, we still have power. My girlfriends house's power went out in the evening for about a hour. But everything on the West side of houston is fine. No FLOODING from what ive heard on the SW side.
