Hurricane question about my town?

Question

okay I'm really really scared about the storms that hurricane gustav and i just seen on the weather channel and in wondering how strong its going to be when it hits longview texas and what Can i do (since i live in a trailer ) to be safe thers a creek about 50 feet away from my house

Answer 1

The weather channel has been saying flooding is very possible anywhere near the hurricane. if that creek near you isn't very big ,chances are it will flood over. If its ever come close to flooding from a normal storm chances are you should leave. To be safe find a hotel for a couple days that is away from the hurricane.

Answer 2

Honey we live near Galveston, and thank God it missed us. In Longview you may get a lot of rain. Please say hello to Gladewater. My daughter was born there 33 years ago. I love the people in your area. Please don't worry and God be with you!!!!!!!
