Day '-1' it's 2 in the morning

Ran out to Walmart and got some tape for the windows. Walmart is quite well stocked for the situation we are in. No bread but plenty of bananas.

We parked the cars in the university garages. The university has opened them up, for free. People from Houston, some after 10-14 hrs of driving, have been parking their cars here and heading out to the local churches for shelter.

The local gas station hasn't run out of gas. A good thing for people who are driving through the area and need to fill up.

All the local churches and schools are preparing to host evacuees. There seems to be shortage of volunteers right now.
