Most folks seem to be taking it in stride. I've been through a few hurricanes, and one typhoon, and you just ride it out as best you can.
Bought some new rubber booties today, so was able to check out the cellar, and it's OK. Found a pool of water on the floor just inside the interior door, where the driving rain had penetrated the weather stripping, but otherwise, was dry as could be. Temp was 59, humidity 66 - I'll take it.

Hardware store owner greeted me like long-lost kin. His shop is above the Helotes Creek, which had become a raging torrent, and most of his customers had stayed away. He was still kind of bug-eyed goosey, and glad to be making any sales at all. A 1929 earthen dam is uphill from him, and if that sucker breaks, he'll be tryin' to tread water for 20 miles. So far, so good.
