Yeah, I lived in OK at that time, but my parents lived here and had a little roof damage - but my dad sent pix of the broken skyscraper windows downtown. *a real hurricane*

But did I ever send any tornado pix to him? Nooooo.

The scariest thing to me was in Allison when all the bayous were full and the rivers were running upstream. I had 36” of rain at my house in that 4-day period, about 14” of it that last morning, starting about 4:30AM, after we thought it was all gone. *wrong!*

I’ve also seen the bayou (Brays) over-top, in Oct ‘93. I’m a block from that in both directions, so that would be the only worry - and it’s the best controlled bayou in the city, so not worried at all.

Oops, hearing raindrops on front window now as I type.
