Rode out the storm at home on the north east side of Houston close to Beltway 8 and I-45. Power went out when the hurricane made land fall around 2:30 am last night. I looked outside right when our power went off and saw two green flashes towards the back of our neighborhood, transformers blowing. Power came back on this morning around 11:00 am. So we have water and electricity. We have food and water that we had stocked up on so we are good. Gasoline is scarce at the moment around town. Took a drive to check out my grandmother's house. No major damage that I've seen. A few tree limbs down and an occasional fence down. We where really lucky on the rain. We were expecting flooding.
