Reports from the Houston area appear to be fairly positive, all things considered.

In talking with my client down there earlier today, I learned that some of the folks I know and have worked with from my client's office will, literally, have to rebuild their houses after Ike's passage. According to our tenants, though, we lucked out, suffering only minor wind damage.

That really blows my mind, after having taken a look at Ike's path, as depicted at the Wall Street Journal web site, and seen how close our real estate - the two pink diamonds in the center of the graphic below - was to the eye of the storm.

Ike's Path

That's close. Another of my LJ friends is just north of the city and the last I heard had escaped major damage but still didn't have any power. I think in the future he'll store more gas for his generator though ;)
