LOL. I didn't catch that either. I'll have to bring it up at the brief tonight.

I saw on CBS news that NOLA is supposed to be waaaaay more ready this time.
We. Shall. See.

This is now officially a media hurricane. The winds will hit at 85 MPH and not 150 MPH. The storm surge will be 15 feet and not 30 feet. Its purpose is to continue to disrupt the convention, even though it won't, because that story is about three times as interesting as the convention.

New Orleans is a toilet…it needs (another) good cleansing!
It won't get one this go-around...as Toad pointed out, this storm is media-driven...in fact, I doubt it can be classified as a weather event at all. Heat is not the energy source, but marketing. Weather is largely a means of moving heat around...Isaac is largely a means of moving money around.

Isaac is supposed to hit my area this afternoon. So far...nuthin', but I'm ready for it if it knocks out our power.

John, be careful. This event will last over several days and flooding is the biggest concern.

We're on a hill...flooding's not a problem, but it will rain major tomorrow. I'm more concerned about losing water and power for an extended period. Anyway, according to the latest weather maps, it should be movin' outta MS by Friday.
The people in the most danger are the Louisianians. Let's just hope there are no fatalities. |

Still pretty calm over here. It is raining in Hattisberg.
Anyway, here's the projected path as of 6PM yesterday: |
