To all the ponyfans in the greater Houston/Galveston area, as well as in the Golden Triangle of Texas and southwestern Louisiana: Stay safe and smart as Tropical Storm Edouard works it way onto the mainland.

Watching The Weather Channel right now...looks like D-FW will only catch the northeast edge of the storm after it makes landfall. The Hill Country will get most of the rain.

This will be a non-event. It's not even a hurricane. Dolly was a Cat 2.
