Quote: I have not heard any reports from Cameron. Has anyone? Until all these smaller communities are accounted for, either by communication with locals or visits by rescuers, we won't know the real story of Rita in my opinion.
You may have more up to data info than I do. CNN was reporting that the roads/ highway into Cameron were under water and it would be a while before anyone could get in. My hope is, that everyone got out of there in response to the evacuation request. Otherwise they will be like the 1000 or more in Vermillion Parish that are having to be rescued from rooftops. Vermillion Parish road equipment was under water and they weren't sure if it would be usable after the water receded. I'm still looking for more recent data. WWL 870 AM and 740 AM (KTRK??) in Houston are both clear channel, high power radio stations. 1200 WOAI in San Antonio is also a clear channel station and may have SE TX information.
To those wishing to return to their homes in the Houston, Beaumont, Lake Charles areas. The Officials in those areas are asking that you delay your return until at least Monday. There are areas with limited fuel supplies. The fuel supply that is there will be dedicated to emergency personnel and vehicles, and medical personnel required in the area. If you run out of fuel, enroute to your home, you may become stranded...This is from the Mayor of Houston,TX. Areas of Cameron, Calcasieu and Vermillion Parishes in SW LA are still underwater and non-accessable.
