Hurricane Claudette Goes Coastal…
Posted on July 15, 2003 by Christine | 14 Comments
Hurricane Claudette sweeps ashore, but worst yet to come.
I wish I had a video camera this morning so I could record just how fast the clouds are moving. It’s just raining here, but we are under tornado watch advisory and flash flood warnings. It’s very wet and very gray outside – and windy!
If you want to keep an eye on things, there is a really cool Galveston Webcam. It’s not pretty out there right now. Claudette has arrived.
Update: No video camera, but I did snap a photo with the phone camera during my drive to work.

I saw a lot of people with their headlights turned off on my way to work. In this weather, no less. Can you believe that? Idiots!

Oh! I screamed at two different idiots with their headlights off! The crazy fools! (Yes, I realize they can’t hear me when I’m in my car screaming. It still makes me feel better.)

I guess this would not be a good time to look at moving to Texas, huh?

That’s some impressive weather you’ve got! As everyone else has said, stay safe!

Claudette could have been so much worse. We got lucky in Houston/Galveston… Matagorda County is a mess.
BTW – thanks for the link to the ch. 11 webcam…..

Claudette really wasn’t that bad as far as storms go – so it’s probably safe to move to Texas. I think every state has something bad – you get good weather in California, but they have earthquakes for example. At least we know about hurricanes days or even weeks before they show up on the shore!
