Here in Tyler county, we just received a manadatory evacuation notice, as did Jasper, Newton.
These are the counties hit so hard by Rita. The water surge is now predicted to reach the
20' mark. Most levies in say Port Arthur, Nederland, Beaumont are about 12-15 foot.

Woodville is located 60 miles south of Beaumont.

Probably regret it, but I am staying. Generator working, got beer, chips, coffee and ice.
Even got some water.

Once again, Good Luck to all from New Orleans, La. to Brownsville, Tex., and upperwards
as it advances. Winds are suppose to be less than Rita. Rita winds here were at 105.

Later.
