As a native houstonian I was raised to prepare for the worst even if u don't need the supplies, u start preparing in April.
Have batteries & battery operated fans, lanterns, tv, water, non cooking food, get a barbecue pit, charcoal .
U almost prepare like a camper would. Hurricane season is June - November, but with climate change it could go longer. Stay safe everyone.

I've been living in an older home in North Houston for 26 years. During this time, it has survived many storms and not flooded. We are blessed to have a great location and a well constructed older home. A gas grill and a mid-size generator got us through Beryl. However, during the storm our immediate concerns were large trees potentially falling as they did throughout the subdivision
The gift and the curse of those beautiful mature trees. Only so much that they can take. Glad you made it through without issue 🙏🏽
I'm from Miami. Hurricane Andrew (Cat 5) hit us badly in 1992. This storm in Houston was very light work. Not even a category 1. My only problem is what happens if a Cat 5 hits Houston? Houston doesn't have an effective emergency plan. As far as Harvey, It was just long days of heavy rain which is why it flooded the city badly. Now, if that storm was a Cat 5, there's a strong possibility that most if not all those homes would've been destroyed. Thank God you and you're family are safe.
Yea anything above a Cat 1 and we’re gone. Houston has nothing in place for major events of any kind unfortunately 🥴. And with so many people here it just makes it worse
The light flicker was a paid actor! 😂hope the lights stayed on!!
I am in Kingwood we lost power 5am Monday and still don’t have power. It’s a rental older home. This is called the living forest…. Well, it has a price. I agree about the new construction. Generator is a must going forward.
Every client consultation I’ve had since last Sunday I’ve told them to factor in buying a generator for their move. It’s a non negotiable at this point.
O yes! The generator saved us! Beryl did her big one. Glad you guys are safe!
I need that generator action in my life lol 😫
Welcome to Houston!!!! We are very close to Galveston so if they get, we get hit. Thank God for Generators!!!!! Just found your channel! Thanks for being honest!
Thanks for checking out the channel! We try to keep it as honest and unfiltered as possible here lol
Prayers for you, the fam, and all Houstonians🙏
We’re on the right track! Just thankful damage wasn’t as bad as it could’ve been. That storm was brutal rolling through our neighborhood
You have a beautiful family. I currently live in Los Angeles California. I will be retiring in 2-3 years. My daughter and I would like you to be our realtor in Houston. Love the information and home videos keep them coming. Will be in touch soon.
Sounds like a plan and congrats in advance on retirement. If you want to connect in the meantime here’s a link to my calendar: aaronlathan.prgtexas.net/buyer-consultation
Thank you for sharing your hurricane experience. I like that you include these types of videos on your channel, and you include your wife and daughter. 🙂
Thanks for checking out the channel ☺️. They’re my favorite co-stars
The same happened to me in Richmond. I had just finished house of the dragons and there goes the power lol. Glad you all are safe!
Thank you. You back up and running? That episode was crazy though huh??!
Yeah it was! This was our first hurricane so it was pretty intense. Power out for 4 days smh
Glad you guys made it through the storm. Were looking at purchasing a tri-fuel generator. We don’t need to power the entire house. Just as long as we have AC, lights, and fridge going, we should be ok
Thank you! As long as you have something. Being without power for a week in a top 5 metro is insane.
Glad y’all came out ok also 🙏🏽☺️
I lost power 5am day of hurricane in shadow creek ranch (Pearland) ….then power came back on 7pm same day
Your community kept us going so I’m glad most of your commercial was up and running. Don’t know what we would’ve done without new Pearland 😫🫶🏽
Yes it was my 1st hurricane here and it wasn’t so bad ! I definitely would say still Houston and surrounding suburbs are a great place to live!
🎯!!! You liking your purchase in the Pearland area?
I'm glad you and your family are okay after hurricane Beryl.
In the past, flooding was our main concern during hurricane season...now it's, "are we going to have electricity?" Because it's hot during hurricane season. 😊
It’s a valid concern. This heat is no joke 😫
Just been a little over 1 year in Houston. The May derecho storm drove me to buy a generator.
Got the triFuel inverter generator that could run the house. We were out for 4 days. Thankfully, we didn't lose power this time. Besides, the detention lakes in Sunterra did a great job of preventing floods
Got my generator on order myself 😫. And yay for neighborhood ponds! Loving the new post Harvey developments
The power flicker at the end gave me ptsd 🤣🤣🤣
Bro! I was shook!
Great info. Beautiful couple/family!
Thank you thank you 😊
I have been in Houston for a year now and this is the second time we lost power, coming from Florida, Houston is not prepared for this kind of weather, which is weird because there has been multiple storms but still not prepared. After the first episode we purchased a generator, I we decide to stay here for the long run, a full side generator would be needed
Generators are a must. It’s a non negotiable in my opinion
Stay safe and cool 😎 family.
Thank you! We’re back up and running in one of our houses. Hopefully the rental is back soon 😫🙏🏽
I’ve lived in Houston practically all of my life and never seen anything like Beryl. Seems like your community was built correctly. The home I lived in previously for 10 years in Richmond experienced street flooding during Hurricane Harvey.
Communities like mine benefited from the flood prevention post Harvey.
Aaron and family glad all is well and that you all survived Beryl Love the new house> Congratulations!!!
Thank you so much 😊 🙏🏽
Thank y’all for doing this video!
Houston has a long way to go but it’s heading in the right direction of back to normal. And you’re welcome ☺️
I'm so glad you and your family are safe. We're with y'all on that #teamgenerator
🫶🏽.Right! No clue why your comment was flagged?!?!
Baton Rouge in da house 👋🏽
#225
Gladys you are OK ❤
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
The whole house generator is great as long as you can afford it.
The bill is the bill at this point 🥴 but I agree. Gotta do whatever you can in whatever budget you’re working with. But you gotta have something.
Glad yall okay phrat 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
✊🏽😎 Preciate it
Yes sir, hopefully you do a video of the new development in Pearland called Massey oaks 🙏🏾.
McDonald's is still not open. I was there today. And, once the pumps were turned on, in savannah lakes, on hwy 6, the streets were cleared in an hour.
That McDonald’s being closed and the Whataburger stuck in purgatory is a problem. Lmfao. I need both open asap. Bringing back lukewarm food from Pearland is getting old 🥴
I'm so glad that you and your family were safe during the storm. So my parents have a generac and it was our saving grace this week. Should you get a generac, just know that you will need to stock up on oil so should your generator stop on you, it might be because you are out of oil
Thank you! And I appreciate that nugget. I’ll have a garage full of oil if I need to. I can’t live like that 🤣
@@aaronlathan FYI, If I had seen your videos first, I would have reached out to you, unfortunately I have a realtor, however I will send business your way.
It’s all good. I’ll catch you on the next one ☺️👍🏽
Hi Aaron, I'm so happy to see you are all well. Your home is beautiful, what lot size is your home & whats the size of your yard? Great video!
Thank you thank you! We’re a 50’ section. Highland is now building on 55’ wide lots in my community. We’re on almost 7000 sf lot
@@aaronlathan thank you for the reply and congrats on the beautiful home!
That light flicker 😂😂❤
Made my heart sink! 🤣🤣🤣
1 more thing nice hme😊
Thank you ☺️
I'm glad the family is okay. I love watching your videos! Do you have any videos in Dayton, TX? If you are in that area, I would love to learn more about Dayton. We are learning a lot before moving to Texas next year. It seems like the prices in Dayton are on par with affordability, and the distance is almost like other cities you touched base on. Thank you.
None yet. I’ll see what I can do ☺️👍🏽
@@aaronlathan Sounds good, Aaron, Thanks brotha!
Hi Aaron. So glad to see you amd your beautiful family are safe and well.
My family and I will be moving from S. Fl to the Houston area in July 2025. We want new construction (I love neighborhoods with sidewalks for bike riding and running paths) but we want a large lot (half an acre to a full acre). We want to use you as our realtor but wanted to fly in and look at neighborhoods ahead of time. Any suggestions??
Nice. I look forward to helping. Depends on a few factors though. But I’d love to talk through options with you to help you game plan. Here’s my calendar ☺️: aaronlathan.prgtexas.net/buyer-consultation
I disagree about newer places. My home is 2008 and it never flooded. Moved to Katy a year ago. Most of Katy didn’t lose power. Most of our lines are underground. We have a decent amount of trees, but not surrounding our homes, so little trees falling. Most people without electricity was out for about 3-4 days. I hear the woodlands/Conroe area stay getting hit with floods, falling trees and big storms. I’m glad I didn’t choose that area.
I’m thankful that you haven’t had issues in your area. There are a few communities that have had little to no impact from recent storms but I’d say you’re more of an exception than the rule though.
Glad you guys are safe🙏🏻 Who’s the builder of your house? 🙂
🙏🏽🙏🏽 Highland Homes
It pays to have credit cards not for buying clothes and things only for hurricane season June thru October emergency purposes only nothing else
I been living in Beaumont , Texas we had the very strong strong outer bands those winds were very very high
Our lights did not go out in the South spark area the entire Hurricane Beryl on July 8, 2024
It will never ever been forgotten
Glad you were ok 👍🏽
Well, I am assuming you mean cities around Houston because Meridiana is Iowa Colony, we did not lose power during the hurricane just tree limbs and fence boards thank goodness.
Glad you were lucky. 👍🏽
My main question was about Meridiana because I was considering this particular community. I'm from the Port Arthur/Beaumont area so I'm no stranger to flooding and hurricanes. Also, I've been watching your channel. Did you go with the Panamera plan...I noticed that curved staircase. I walked that particular house and I love the Panamera (sorry if I'm sharing too personal info).
Good eye! 🎯 you coming to be my neighbor?! 👀
@@aaronlathan After your video, probably lol. I was just waiting to see how Meridiana handled hurricanes and flooding (for sure flooding) for the exact reason you mentioned. South Houston metro, closer to the coast.
@Prplngldbee616 we made it no major issues. So come on home 🤗. When we hopping on a call? 👀
@@aaronlathan I've got your info, don't worry and I definitely have been watching your videos for close to a year now as well. I've been talking to a realtor for a year now, as well, but I've not signed a contact or anything with him. I'm one of those traveling healthcare workers with some changes going on.
@Prplngldbee616 ☺️👍🏽 here when you need me
First u have a bbq of any meat u got in the freezer . Always have a couple of bags of ice in the freezer and a ice chest to keep fridge items cold . Never buy more than a weeks worth of food . I went to cooling centers during the day and then found places to chill out until the temps dropped enough to go home to sleep . You can ride the bus all day to stay cool . Always keep food that dont spoil and dont need to be cooked on hand . Always have an emergency stash of cash because if the power out banks and debit cards dont work . I had a small generator to charge my phone for several days but it was too small to really do anything else . Do not just sit at home and wait for help you got to go find the help you need the government is not going to do anything for you .
Some solid advice in here!
@@aaronlathan thanks im a native
I live by the big airport and we still don’t have power 😭
I was up that way touring with clients yesterday and it was rough from Humble to Spring. The trade off of mature trees. Hope yours comes back soon 🙏🏽
@@aaronlathan ikr…grateful non of our homes were damaged by any of them 🙏🏽thank you so much! Glad your family’s safe!
@@vactlife same friend! Same!!
*none 😆
@@vactlife I read it as none. So Beryl got me seeing things 🤣
Great that the family is safe. Highland has not disappointed you from what I have seen. Builders could plan for generators in their future floorplans.
So far so good. Trust but verify is my motto. Any builder can be great if you’re willing to make them stay honest. But I’ve had some of the best experiences with clients using Highland so far
