National Weather Service bulletins that the storm Harvey is gaining strength faster than any cyclone on record, and its forecast has been upgraded several times over the night from tropical storm, to Cat 1, to Cat 2, to Cat 3... with landfall tomorrow morning.
It's kinda unprecendented, and to make matters worse, the hurricane is going to bizarrely sit on top of the coast and just kinda churn there for days, which is also unheard of.
So, while it's on the low end of Category 3, with sustained winds around 115 mph, it's going to be a very long-lasting hurricane.
Unfortunately, I live right on its path on the coast, so I'll likely get an order to evacuate tonight or be hunkered down without power tomorrow. I might disappear from the interwebs for quite a while, 4 days, a week, etc. because our power grid here in Texas has a 3rd-world rating. Yay lack of public investment.
Just letting everybody know!

Holy Shit! Well here's hoping that life loss and object object destruction is kept to the absolute minimum. Stay safe and come back to us Vi, it'd be a huge blow to lose our crazy feminine-but-male-bot on site.
But seriously, don't die.
