This is very serious, of course.

I have co-workers that live in the Port Arthur and Orange, TX areas. Mail haulers that do a cross country relay. I texted a driver friend earlier and he has done all he can, but his wife can not travel.

I’m concerned for them all. If it’s a surge of 15’ coming up the inlets at Port Arthur, I fear it will put I-10 underwater through there.

Don't know if they'll get the 15' surge but they're going to get pounded by winds & torrential rains.
We're concerned, and not in a Susan Collins way.

No question about it. Trying to look presidential and concerned. Same strategy Rick Scott used to fool Floridians in 2016-2018.

Right wing media will gush over Trump's performance

Unbelievable he’s making no comment about this storm.

Probably just pissed it might take away from rnc co enrage. I hope the media are going to cover the storm.
