Title: Houston we have a problem
Post by: taxspeaker on August 28, 2017, 06:08:39 PM
Troy,

I do not know you but have read back and forth on here for several years. I hope you and your family and loved ones are safe from the rain and floods.

I have been wondering the same about Troy.  I have family down there that have 2-3 feet of water in their home.  Could always be worse though. Praying for everyone affected by the storm.

Found this over on Moparts doesn't sound good for Troy 
Sucks around here.. Please, if you are a religious person, pray for us.. It is getting worse now.. Water getting closer to the house.... Not sure how much more we can take in our subdivision. But, we are way better off than most of Houston and/or Harris County along with the landfall area of Hurricane Harvey..

He is OK.   Water has receded from his subdivision.     Pic posted earlier today on FB.

Now its gonna be Florida!

My heart goes out to everyone suffering in these terrible storms! :'(

We had it bad here in 87, it blew the roof off the church where we were getting married the following weekend.
(The roof had been on there for 600 years., the place is called Battle, where the French gave us and Harold a good beating too)
 
The Vicar was well cool, he just said,''if it isn't raining, God will smile down on us through the broken beams'' :2thumbs:

I live on the South coast and won't ever forget that storm....only time a hurricane force storm has hit us in my lifetime...and it took my Grandfather......

Good luck to all in Florida for the coming few days and our thoughts and with all the unfortunates already going though the wringer in the Caribbean...really scary forage on the TV this evening.

I'm worried about the Hemi Charger 500 I just sold.  It went to Kissimmee Fl.  I will call in a few days to see how it faired.  Of all the darn places for it to go when it had lived in Az. for over 40 years...

Hi Chris.

I like Kissimmee 'old town' its a real nice car place.
Deffo needed some more Mopars there, as it is a Chevy hot-spot... :slap:

I think the Storm has gone more west and calmed down a bit!
God may have heard my prayer... :pity:

He told me in a dream, that C500's are the bestest cars on Earth (as it is in heaven). :patriot: :engel016: :angelwing:

•Irma is the strongest Atlantic basin hurricane ever recorded outside the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea
•It spent three days as a Category 5 hurricane, the longest Category 5 hurricane since satellite storm-tracking began
•No storm on record has maintained winds 185 mph or above for as long as Irma (total of 37 hours)
•It prompted the largest evacuation in the history of the Bahamas -- and potentially the largest in the US

I know a few guys that retired a few years ago and moved down to FL.  Hope they are ok...

Georgia and Alabama will be getting the big rain next.

Called my sister, my Aunt and Uncle and countless friends on the East Coast. I was born in Miami and grew up in West Palm Beach. They all fared well considering the potential.  Have one good friend who's brother lives near Naples. Need to find out how he and the family did. Irma was a huge storm.

Yep, there's no such thing as Global warming...or is there?
Mars isn't looking such a hostile place to live after all... :yesnod:

Whilst I was praying for Florida I forgot to pray for Kent UK! :eek2:
I got flooded out in my workshop and garage, lucky my C500 didn't get too wet!!! :pity:

Thing was they didn't forecast rain for that day in Kent, where's our weather Satellitte???
Been converted into another Daytona clone I bet??? :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol:

Hurricane Maria now a Cat. 5

Looks like our fellow citizens in Puerto Rico may take a direct hit.
Weather guys think it may get to the East Coast...   :rotz:
