It says you can kennel them on base, but that there are limited slots and it is not climate controlled. Number for the Animal Defense League is:
210-655-1481
Info taken from the hurricane preparation packet, which you can also find on the TW-4 website.
I'm wondering if they are just waiting for it to reach hurricane status, and thus the watch becomes a warning, and everything that would entail.

Damnit! This hurricane showed up 1 year too late. Enjoy the fun for the rest of us sorry fools.
Last I heard was that all people who live on the island and base have a recommended evacuation and should live with friends in town. Since it's only recommended, they won't be reimbursed for hotels in town. Obviously, this is subject to change and we should get official word on tomorrow.
A friend in 22 said that Krock is going to have a voluntary evac tomorrow... Haven't heard anything other than this so I have no idea if it's true. Figured I'd go in tomorrow and see what's up myself. That and I need to do some errands while I'm there. Might as well see what's up.
But officially... They kinda suck at keeping us in the loop. Would be nice if the sked had some note on it. Like if the storm does this evac likely. If it goes here, evac likely... Just to let us know what they are thinking...

Basically, if we want to evac, we need to get the heck outta dodge by tomorrow afternoon at the latest. Same deal here. Going to work in AM to see what the deal is.
Last year when I was at VT-35, basically all studs were on the fly-out list, and we'd be boarding C-12's/T-44's the minute the Evac started. You could get taken off the list if you were married and had dependents to help Evac, or if you talk to the O in charge of the HurrEvac, he might let you off the fly-out list if you convince him your dog is a dependent. But like someone else said, if you're going to the base you evac to, kennel space is limited, so you might be footing the bill yourself.
Not sure if the same is true for primary students. I suspect they'll fly out as many as possible in T-34's and advanced birds. As they reminded us many times, the planes are worth more than your car that gets left behind.
The other thing some people did was find a generous, married buddy whose significant other was willing to take your pet with them.

Exactly! Who said college life had to be over?
That's funny because when Hurricane Allen had Corpus Christi boresighted in August of 1980, (Allen was a Cat V record setter for hurricanes in the Gulf) the TW-4 Commodore put the word out that all personnel and dependents should take shelter aboard NAS. Most of us used common sense and evacuated our families. Mine went to Dallas because family was there. I spoke with my neighbor (VT-28 OpsO) afterward and he told me the senior officer present in VT-28 was a LtJg. Hurricane Allen, after heading straight for CC for 2 1/2 days, stalled about 100 miles offshore, meandered around for a bit, then headed for and made landfall at Brownsville.
Well, it can't be that bad. Got a call from the VT-35 SDO that I have a sim at 1500 tomorrow. I'm staying put on the base, damn hurricane caught me between pay periods and I'm broke 'till the 1st!http://javascript<b></b>: go2image(++current_image)
Yeah I have one at 2030 tomorrow, we'll see what happens
