Hurricane Ike videos/pictures

My camera was glued to my hand even when the wind was going through our house this morning at 6am. Our house suffered two blown windows, a few shingles, trees are gone and teh debris is wild.

I went through a hurricane in Florida at the age of 5, but I was too young to remember what that was like. Hurricanes are no fun. This was quite an amazing experience to be honest, but not one I'd like to go through again. I only got 2 hours of sleep, and tomorrow I'm helping Mustang out in cleaning up and getting those PC's and files cleaned up from above.
I hope everyone was ok.
Eh, just looks like Steve farted.

DAMN!!! Thanks for posting pictures of the damage
word, cheers Carlos!
Just got power back on. This storm coulda have been much worse, glad it wasn't. We had alot of tree limbs strewn about and a section of the fence taken down (that was rotted anyway), but no damage to our house. Hope everyone else fared alright.
Fucking mother nature.
The west roof of the College of Architecture...gone. It so happens that my design studio (now with a grand total of $3000 in it) is underneath that part of the school.
School's optional this week. Hopefully Schulz bangs out this Friday so that I have something to do.
just got power back like 30 min ago, I was shocked the cable was still up! We're down without power from about 3am friday night till just a lil bit ago... if anyone in the houston area needs help hit me up, we have food water, gas to cook and more importantly now that the power is on... ICEEEEEEEE.

nice pics Carlos. Katy got away with a slap to the wrist. Heights blv is trashed with several trees. I-10 and 45 were under water in some parts. Saw news reports of Galveston and Bolivar Peninsula which were raped.
Can't help but feel sorry for people. Especially people with little kids or pregnant women. Heard some guy looking for baby powder for his newborn on the radio.
Price gauging really pisses me off. Making money on someone else's misery is just not cool.

| Originally posted by Carlos Pereira Yea I went to UHArch today and walked out of there pissed the hell off. My models are literally soaked. The buildings in downtown are devastating to see. Some of those windows are completely blown out, not to mention half the roof of Minute Maid Park is gone. Gas Pumps right now = the devil's left nut |
Bolivar Peninsula is now Bolivar Island by the way
