you hit pine trees fairly fast out of phoenix and before that there's a decent amount of bushes and poo poo. the telegraph fire was almost 200k acres in that "blasted hellscape" area of the state.

Houston. If you go North it's a ways before you get to a place that will have spare hotel rooms.

Yeah, you'll probably end up in Memphis if you go north. Gulfport-New Orleans-Houston is reasonably built up and has high capacity highways.

That's the causeway maybe it's closed?
I'd definitely go north since the things stop being hurricanes by that point.

I'm actually kinda confused, theres light traffic on the causeway which doesn't seem to be consistent with it being closed but it sure doesn't look like a hurricane evacuation is occurring either

I'm always wrong but all these fuckers hoarding bc of Katrina PTSD is infuriating (I've been through every major 'cane in central/south Mississippi for 40 years).
