So I have to evacuate my home

As you know, my family and I are in Houston, And Hurricane Harvey's arrival is imminent later today. I've seen the devastation firsthand of what too much water in a short period of time can do. As you'll recall, last year, on  August 13th, my mom had to be rescued from her home in Baton Rouge by boat due to flooding from 4 straight days of rain. She's not far from the Mississippi, Amite, and Comite Rivers. She had 2 feet of water throughout the house and lost all her furniture and  most of her belongings except papers high up in her filing cabinet, and a few books, framed pictures and DVDs. She was rescued by boat, along with most of her neighbors, first to the neighborhood high school and then to an  emergency shelter until my cousin could come pick her up. Emergency services were working around the clock to rescue folks from around the city, and unfortunately some people were trapped in their homes and cars.  Many saw as much as 10 feet of water in their homes, so my mom was relatively lucky. Once the flights out of Baton Rouge resumed, she left town and came to stay with us for five days. When we returned to her home to assess the damage there was mold on the walls from floor to ceiling as well as throughout her car. There were worms and spiders and critters covering the floor that had been washed in with all the water. Oh and the stench... So we began the process of gutting her house. In case you don't know what that entails, it's removing all her furniture, washer / dryer, tables, refrigerator, beds, electronics, bookshelves, chairs, and everything else she had accumulated over 23 years in that house, and placing it on the curb for disposal. Her last 23 years in that house were waiting on the curb for the garbage man, along with all her neighbors' possessions and most folks in the region. Then once the house was empty, we had to tear out all of the molded drywall and insulation so the studs  could start drying out.  We had wheelbarrows, and laundry baskets hauling a house full of drywall to set out on the curb on top of all her belongings. She had no where to stay, so her brother and his wife took her in and gave her a place to stay while we began the building process. Fast forward to today and she's back in the home and it is habitable again, but it is has been a long journey of getting estimates, interviewing contractors, dealing with insurance companies and FEMA, and commuting back and forth 30 miles to her home every day for most of the past year, all while trying to maintain a positive attitude and her sanity. So we are heading north for the weekend to avoid this direct hit. Even if we don't face life-threatening devastation from wind damage, being in the vicinity of hurricane activity is pointless due to the potential of flooding in the streets leaving you trapped in your home. There will certainly be power outages which would leave me unable to work and my kids miserable and scared. There's the possibility of flooding in the house. And hurricanes also spawn random tornadoes.  So I'd rather be away from all those threats rather than ride it out. Nate p.s.
