I guess you just cant evacuate a city that big in under three days.

For Houston live traffic cameras see: http://traffic.houstontranstar.org/cameras/camtext.aspx
Heard another person on the radio (I listen to the radio all day at work, sorry).... They left Galveston YESTERDAY at noon, and are just now getting to Giddings.

I'm sure that won't mean anything to anyone who doesn't know much about the geography of Texas, but Lifesaver, I'm sure you realize how crazy that is. Normally, that would probably only be a 3-4 hour drive at the MOST.
