      I was up all night waiting for Dolly and she's just now (11:15 a.m.) making her presence known. Rain, as opposed to sprinkling, is now coming down and the wind has picked up.

      I am about 70 miles inland from Brownsville and 10 miles north of McAllen.

      The much-touted levees are nothing but piles of dirt, so if they get soaked through, we'll see plenty of mudslides, I guess.

      Not looking for much damage, if any, at my apartment complex. Just hope the electric lines aren't blown down.

      Yeesh. My Dad is in Brownsville.

      He seems considerably less worried than I am.
