It wasn't too long ago I bought 1/2" CDX for ~$15 a sheet. I have a nice stock pile of 1/2".... some 5/8" CDX and 5/8" T1-11, also.

Went to get more 1/2" sheets, today, for boarding up my brother's windows, in the Lake Charles area. Price at Doug Ashy is $32 a sheet, Home Depot is $30 a sheet, Lowes is $29 a sheet.

Our only consolation is doing some hoodoo, maybe send Laura Leon's way, since he and folks that way seem to have an affinity for storms and high water.

Thank you Sonny, NO THANK YOU. It's "your storm". But in hind site
it appears that the storm surge was pretty much a non event. We heard
it would be 20 feet deep near Lake Charles. We watched a local reporter
from Houston showing what was going on in Vinton this morning. She was
showing the storm serge by standing in a rain filled ditch. No water in
the streets. The media gives Saturday Night Live a run for its money.

The 20' storm surge prediction was from the National Weather Service/NOAA,
who said the "worst case" storm surge could reach 20'.

You can't blame the media for reporting the facts.
