Hurricane Ike is coming for Jordan! It is a category 2 hurricane, potential to be a category 4 by landfall. It is heading to Houston/Galveston area. They are evacuating everything south of Houston. Houston is right about where the projected path (black line) intersects with the coastline of Texas. Jordan works downtown Houston and his company cancelled work for today after noon and all day tomorrow. They eye of the storm is supposed to hit Friday night. Right now winds are up to 50 mph and could get maximim sustained winds of 150 mph. Jordan was supposed to fly out Friday at 3:30 pm, but moved his flight to today at 6:55 pm. He regrets not taking a earlier flight today. He said traffic is insane (more so than usual) because of the evacuation and what should be an hour drive to the airport is going to be hours. He is leaving work at 11:30 for a 6:55 flight!I hope he makes it out in time. If not, it'll be a long weekend at the airport if he is not washed away! Maybe now he'll look for a different job in the midwest?? (I love you Jordan!!)
***UPDATED! Jordan did get the earlier flight home today! He is flying standby! ***
