I tried to respond to the comments and questions yesterday but I goofed or got poofed off. but i will try again. I am located in
Fannett Texas,directly between Beaumont and Port Arthur. A direct hit by Harvey.An oficial rainfall guage located 100 yards from
my property recorded a total of 48.34 inches of rain . I was very fortunate and had no flooding .Mother in law,sister in
law,four nephews were flooded, one to the rooftop.All are safe and sound. Yes overall hundreds of cattle and horses were lost.
The local farmers,ranchers cut fences and opened gates so the livestock could seek higher ground such as roads and
highways.Afterwards they are rounded up ,penned and sorted by brands.Most locals know each others brands as it is common for them
to help work each others cattle.I spent Sunday unloading round bales shipped from north Texas and oklahoma to help feed them
untill the water resides. We have total devastation in the aea but by the grace of god and evryone pulling together we will pull
thru this horrible disaster. I could go on and on with horror stories but don't have the time.Today we began stripping dry
wallfrom one nephews house and will go to others as we can.
 
I am up here in Centerville on I-45. Seeing more and more trucks with building material heading south. One funny thing. We have gas tankers running around all over the place.
 
Going to be a shortage of building supplies,Autos and paceince. What is amazing to me three of the largest refineries in the world and they are trucking gasoline from Baton Rouge.

I take it those are small square bales. 100 big round bales flying through the air would be quite the sight.
