Right now they are predicting that Ike will hit the Texas coast as a Category 4 hurricane with winds in the 131-155 mph range. They say that it will make landfall sometime Friday.
Hurricanes lose their power as they cross over land, Ike might enter San Antonio as a Category 2 hurricane with winds in the 96-110 mph.
So today we made some preparations. We have enough food, water, and fuel to get us through the week. We even have our Emergency Kits handy (thanks Mom and Dad).
I'm cleaning out the garage on Friday and will try to put both cars in there. We wouldn't want anything to happen to them in the storm.
I hope that this storm isn't as bad as I think its going to be... but if it is, we'll be ready.
Who knows, maybe I'll end up having the next week off from school.
Fat chance.
Oh yeah... and we do have a hot weather lady on WOAI.
