Dodged another one
Sep. 14th, 2008 09:27 pmShreveport/Bossier was supposed to get some major effects from Hurricane Ike, but it barely grazed them as it blew it's way between there and Dallas. They got about 2 1/2 inches or rain out of it and some on and off strongish winds. But it's just a brief memory now. Mom says they lost phone/cable for about 4 hours (I'm sure she was upset when she missed some of her favorite soaps or Wheel of Fortune) and the electric blipped a couple of times, but didn't actually go off. No flooding issues that I heard about.
Toronto Ontario is having more serious weather from what was a hurricane than most places in the South [excluding of course the large swath of coastal SE Texas] ended up having. Luck of the draw!
