Aaaaand it's gone again. Last thing they were talking about was making a break for it across a bridge. I wonder if they could just keep driving to stay in the eye until...I dunno, Tuesday?  :P


I just have to say, these guys have cojones the size of hand grenades.

Early in the second stream they were discussing the possibility of breaking into a surviving office building down the street.

Breaking into? Heh, I guess with all the other damage, merely breaking into it is pretty minor.

Looks like trump's finally signed the disaster proclamation that reached his desk what looks like a good six or seven hours ago. So there's that. Hope to hell someone's told FEMA et al besides his twitter post.

E: Ah, and a good bit of Corpus Christi's emergency response infrastructure (main center, vehicles, etc.) have now been reported to be more or less fucked. Response there is likely to be delayed and fractured for a while :-\

E2: Though the real goddamn about it is the shit hasn't even really hit the fan yet. Even though it's been about fifty years since the last cat 4 made landfall in tex, the sumbitch about this one is that predictions are showing it's going to be effectively parking itself for upwards the better part of a week. It's bettable odds anything in a flood zone in that region is going to be gone by next friday.

The Blue Shed shall stand immaculate against the storm, no matter what comes. Other reporting says that the high school in Rockport has been flat-out disintegrated.

Edit: Jeff has tweeted, they moved to a new location.

Like in some other incidents, it looks like he's been caught up helping stay-behinds.

He said that some woman was screaming hysterically and said the eye wall hit her house, exploded it, and blew her and her husband out into the water.

....I'd probably be screaming hysterically too.  :o

It must have been near the eye proper for them to have made it back to land. More lucky than unlucky, I think.

Edit: Their new cover is a WalMart. I am not filled with confidence.

Tornado force winds sounds like. Hope that woman and her husband are okay though.

Walmart? heh, I saw some people commenting about walmart, was wondering about that.

Still seems to be live, though can't see anything and not much on audio.

Ah, they're going in the loading bay. Clever.

Though as he mentioned, there's a risk of those trailers getting blown over.
