Many of us in Texas are praying hard for the Florida folks. We evacuated for Hurricane Rita...18 hours to go 50 miles, no gas, people stranded by the highway, pets dying from dehydration and stress, and the unknown of what the hurricane would bring. Those people are suffering before the storm hits.

@exexec I do remember Rita as well. My son was there with the Navy doing water rescues. And for Katrina. None of us can comprehend the difficulties until we have lived through a nightmare like this. I continue to pray for those in Texas. These storms will affects us for many years to come.

@exexec We have def had the bad luck with the Hurricane's this season....This, is when we donate,volunteer, and just do what we can to help one another. It is going to require massive amounts of money and workers, to try and restore infrastructure....for quite some time.

@nightowl7 Yes, it will. Hopefully we can come together as a nation and help one another.

@Vivaci I am praying for all those involved in this storm and the last one too. 🙏

MY prayers join yours!!! 🙏

I can't recall if any of my friends here are from FL. But we do have other family and friends there.

@Ambroseguy80 Some have kept me up to date as they travel through the night. Gas is hard to find and the roads are extremely crowded.

Amen. And may peace abide in the hearts of all in the face of so much loss and destruction.

SweetMae · 70-79, F

@Windsylph Hopefully we will be there for them after the waters subside and they are forgotten in the news.

@Teirdalin True. It could have helped in some situations.

We were herded into a long hall in the basement with the words Fallout Shelter on it and then told to assume the position you mentioned. @[SweetMae]

I really hope this storm is being overestimated

SweetMae · 70-79, F

@SW-User I do too! For everyone's sake.

Yes,that is such a huge, and destructive storm. I have friends and relatives from Miami to Orlando as well. Thankfully, most have gotten out already. I pray that it will lose it's strength and intensity!

SweetMae · 70-79, F

@nightowl7 It seems to be such a massive and destructive force right now. I pray it diminishes quickly.

@SweetMae Seems like we are going to have a dark period ahead of us, hope people know what time it is.

SweetMae · 70-79, F

@cherokeepatti It is time to pull together as a nation.
