“Our whole city is underwater right now but we are coming,” Port Arthur Mayor Derrick Freeman said in a Facebook post early Wednesday, as distressed residents posted addresses and phone numbers on his official page as they pleaded for help.

The devastation wreaked by Hurricane Harvey is swallowing up more and more communities.
Beaumont and Port Arthur are the latest in the string.
Hopefully lives will be spared in that area.
They are in my thoughts and prayers. I've donated to the Red Cross and the ASPCA, and don't really know what else to do right now-- other than pray. I can't imagine what these poor people are living through! May God bless them and keep them safe from harm!
The whole area should have been evacuated who ever told all these people to "Shelter in place" should lose their jobs. When a cat 3 hurricane is headed towards you, you dont just sit here and let it run your ass over, you move ! Talk about stupid ! Now all these people are paying the price.
I lived in Fl for 17 years whenever we had a cat 3 heading our way I got the hell out of the way. So did anyone with much smarts. These things destroy lives and property sitting there watching it happen is dumb as hell if you absolutely dont have too.
