I made it back from POC about 9 pm last night with the boat and did what I could for everything else. The mother in law is safely out of Victoria. If we get the project storm surge, I'm getting damage no doubt. All I can do now though is hope for the best.
I don't have a lot of space here in Austin but I do have a spare bedroom and shower that I will make available if anyone gets stuck with no where to stay.
