Hurricane Ike: Cubs vs. Houston in Milwaukee for 2 games
TexasCubFan replied to Slugger_16's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Ironically, I'm a meteorologist (by education, though not by profession), live in Houston, and am a lifetime Cub Fan. I expect significant damage in Houston from this storm, unless it veers dramatically to the north as did Hurricane Rita back in 2005. In fact, this storm is pretty much on the same track as Rita was and is expected to hit approximately the same time (early Sat. am). I will be very pleasantly surprised if they play a double header this Sunday at Minute Maid Park, as that will likely mean that damage has been less than anticipated in central Houston, where I live. I wonder if Minute Maid has backup electrical power, as I suspect that there will be massive power outages here over the weekend. I hope MLB has some backup plans in the works!
