Do you know if downtown Houston skyscrapers have been built to hurricane specs such as 100MPH winds or limited glass pane sizes, etc? Supposedly they have, as code specifies 125 mph compliance for all structures in Harris Cty. AAMOF, I must have an Engineers letter stating precisely that for frame and roof on residential construction. During Alicia we did lose a lot of the glass in downtown Houston, but that was 25 years ago. This storm, so far, is about on the same land path, but, sitting out on the porch, it does not appear to be the storm that Alicia was .... it's still early, however. That said, I can hear the transformer's popping South of here as we speak, and I fully expect to lose power in the next couple of hours ... no rain to speak of thus far, here just SW of downtown Houston (West University Place). -- www.e-woodshop.net Last update: 8/18/08 KarlC@ (the obvious) |

Understand a x'fmr blew at the Galveston YC and started a big fire in a covered boat basin. No way to get at it, just letting it burn. Lew |
