The Ike Man Cometh!

[TexasSP]

Just got power back in my north side apartment today in the champions area. Still several million without and Galveston and surrounding looks like a war zone. My brother in law who lives roughly north east of Galveston on the coast had 4 foot of water in his house and lost it all including his truck. My parents are just about a mile north of me and still have no power and my brother who lives about 3 miles north east of me as the crow flies has major infrastructure damage and will be without for at least ten more days. My wife the kid and I camped out in south west Houston at my in laws who are still without power. They had gas water heater and stove though which helped things a bit though. Thankfully everyone I know so far is safe which is the major thing. Still lots down here without and prayers are needed.
