Up here in Spring, almost to The Woodlands, we have had wind and rain (duh!), but our power is still on. That means we are having good coffee this morning — mmmmmm!
Since a good portion of the Houston area dodged the brunt of Rita, talk now will turn to how to get almost 3 million residents back home without the terrible gridlock we saw Wednesday and Thursday. I heard one news report (maybe KTRK-13) saying there was discussion of HISD delaying the opening of schools until after Tuesday so there is less rush for people to get back, and contraflow lanes being opened again for the return trip.
I dunno. I’m not sure there is anything that can be done to minimize the returning human crush. But I tend to be a pessimist.
