Re: Planting Forecasts. Come Talk Gardening!

I just wanted to thank everyone here for the days of notice we got with the last cold wave. I was able to plan ahead and get all my sheets and clothes pins ready.. I saved what I hoped to save, and lost what I expected to lose.

If you set your cell phone alarm, you never have to worry about missing alarm, unless your phone is on silent! Charge your phone all night while we got power.

I have not had an alarm clock or any clock for years. I use my cell. Just a tip!

Re: Tornado Sirens for The City of Houston

From 1977-80 I went to school at the old HSPVA downtown. Every, or many Fridays at noon they would blow the civil defense siren.

Re: July Weather Discussion

Hope you don't mind a bit off topic.. Going to Austin tomorrow....does anyone know how the rivers are ( Pedernales or Guadelupe) ? The flash flood sign always scares me at Perdernales!

Thanks for any replies!
