Check on your friends and family who got hit by Beryl
This is just a friendly post to check in on your friends and family in the Houston and Surrounding areas. Hurricane Beryl was a Category 1 storm that did a lot of damage. There were very strong wind gust that took down lots of trees and power lines in the N Houston areas including Conroe, Willis, Huntsville, Livingston, etc. Other areas were hit as well, Katy, Pearland, Sugarland, and all the way to the coast.
At least 14 people died in this storm and there are lots of people that have no running water, no electricity, no generators, etc. The hotels are booked, and some hotels are price gouging.
Sometimes it is after a storm when people need the most help, especially our elderly population. My parents have a generator but their A/C was not working. It was 90 degrees in their house. Thankfully, we have other family members close by who were able to give them a place to stay until their power is restored. We currently have no electricity or water, and they are estimating next week. We have resources so we are good.
Sometimes people will say they are fine, but when you physically go and check on them, you find out they are not.
Just give them a call, or drop by if you are able. Have a great day!
We are still working - thanks to businesses with internet!
