Evacuations begin in Texas ahead of Hurricane Ike

1. Does Geodesic need to evacuate as well?

Hopping geodesic is out of the woods;)

2. How Geodesic is to manage such unforeseen circumstances?:confused: or it would just be at six and sevens!

Crossed fingers for you.

Thanks,

No worries for Geodesic, we're far enough inland that we don't have to worry about hurricanes getting this far. Usually when people have to evacuate the coastal regions, we are where they evacuate to, we're in the Dallas/Fort Worth area for anyone curious.

Thank you for the concern though :) Our hearts and prayers go out to those that do have to evacuate.

Speaking of storms, what we do get to worry about, are tornadoes, which do not give us the time to evacuate. Unlike hurricanes which you can see forming over the water days or weeks in advance, usually you won't know about a tornado until a few hours in advance, if that. Personally I've had 1 or 2 close calls with tornadoes, once where the path went literally about 3 miles from were I was driving home one day after work here at Geodesic (we were actually leaving early that day due to the storms).
