are going out to the hundreds of thousands of people in Texas and parts of Louisiana who are being affected and/or displaced by Hurricane Ike.
I've been watching the Weather Channel most of the day, and have seen that a few coastal towns are already flooded out, and the hurricane (eye) isn't even expected to make landfall until late tonight. This is a very large (in circumference) hurricane with TS winds extending out over 200 miles from the center, and hurricane force winds extending out over 125 miles from the center (last time I looked).
God bless y'all and keep you safe!
