I have a dear, very dear friend living in that area code in Houston, TX.
I tried to call her just a few minutes ago but got no answer.
I am worried sick, don't know how she is, how that area was affected etc.
Any update on that area specific, anyone??
I have posted on the regular IKE thread as well, but thought to start a new topic.
Praying for all other peeps in the affected are too, ofcourse, but since having a friend in this area code.....
ANYONE??

Marian, I am so glad your friend is fine. This city has been through just devastating things (when I say that, I am including Galveston and everywhere around it..)

Marian,
I know a lot of the people who were going to stay have also been evacuated so it maybe that she is staying somewhere else.

MArian if her power is out and she only has a cordless phone it will just ring and ring. It is quite possible that phone lines are down too. They are reporting that approximatly 1.8 million customers (4.5 million individual people) are without power in Houston and surrounding area. The storm was downgraded to a CAT-1 by the time it hit houston so most of the dammage in that area is minor wind damage and poweroutages. I know it can be scarey though! I also heard that they had requested that people limit phone use to emergancy use only until after the storms pass through.

Thank you Heather!. I know how to call her, I did but just didn't get an answer from her. HOPE she is safe somewhere else, but last time I checked she was staying home :( . She changed her cell number, so can't reach her cell.

This is all I could find. I don't know how you are dialing from the Netherlands. Let me know if this helps.
