At least this thing whipped by quickly - it would be real bad if it slowed down. Those A frames would have been woodchips. And I can't believe the power grid hasn't been upgraded after the last few years of disasters that Texas has been through.

Never underestimate hurricanes of any size! You never know what flavor hurricane will strike. Sometimes it's the rain, sometimes it's the wind, sometimes it's the tide. You never know so it's best to just get the heck out!
-
I cannot imagine it if it would had been a catagory two or three. My poor dogs were very frightened. Somehow they knew something odd was up.
-
Nope, nope, nope. Always leave if you are able. Glad he and his dog are ok but hope he remembers this lesson.

There's nowhere safe anymore Mother Earth can hit us anywhere anytime. We've abused our mother Earth now we're paying the price.

How could he have lived right on the beach for 35 yrs and this category 1 storm scared him the most?
-
HARRP
-
I feel bad for everyone in the path, but I am ever so thankful that it didn't hit here with the impact that was originally expected in Corpus!! 😔
-
Why was the fountain on in the rain?
-
Poor man. God was with him and doggie.
-
Have these people never heard of going to a safe place just in case the storm strengthened before it made landfall
-
To make matters worse, nobody in county leadership has yet to utter a word other than to tell people the courthose is closed on Tuesday. A little information and some signs of organization would be helpful.

I’ve never seen Dallas so quiet 🤐
-
Excuse me but did I see A-frame houses built on a pier? Seriously? Dont they have any sense?
-
If you live on the beach or live at sea level, this is what you get!
-
This is only 1.5C above pre industrial average temp. Wait until 2C in 10-20 years. Going to be fun!
-
A barely CAT1 shocks? That must be those kids first storm lol. Lucky for them the season is just starting. They will get too see what real Hurricanes can do, then be shocked.😊
-
It was very scary. My dog and I spent 8 hours in a bathroom.
-
I mean, who ever saw damage from hurricanes before? It’s something no one ever’s been through so you had warnings of what it would be like. Ever. 🤦♂️
-
I hope insurance doesn’t pay to rebuild those “iconic” A-Frames. This is why the insurance costs are going up in the whole country! To pay for beach/coastal homes to be repaired/replaced when they should not.
