SJL-IKE 10:00 PM UPDATE

Skipped work tonight as the Kemah bridge is closed due to winds, the Kemah Boardwalk is completely under water as is most of the area of Seabrook east of SH 146. Still strong northerly winds although my weather station shows peak gusts of 38 mph. The storm eye (if there is one) shows to still be offshore, and the radar image barely shows a little red in and among the yellow rain bands. Kitty decided to go outside and play in the storm a little, but I expect that he will be back pretty soon. It's getting a little rough out there, but so far the power is holding on. More later.
