After touching down earlier today, Hurricane Dolly has brutalized my other hometown of Harlingen, TX. My parents and brother (17) were pretty well-prepared so they are hunkered down and just watching the rain come down in Biblical proportions. Here are a few shots my brother took with his phone and sent to me that show how their wooden privacy fence went down on both sides of the backyard:
The painfully slow movement of this hurricane is the biggest issue now as it will continue dump inches of rain on an area ill-prepared to handle it.
I’ll be back later tonight with a baseball-related posting.
