Isaac
I'm back home and on Hurricane alert. I hope all of our Dwellars near the Gulf Coast are prepped. I know Buster B & John are in the danger zone. Mississippi Joint Force Headquarters is assessing this as a serious threat and if you live near the coast, you need to be prepared.
Just an FYI

From what I saw on noaa today, Isaac is heading toward the gulf, so the usual path up the east coast is ok......unless it hits the keys and decides to turn. That would completely ruin the weekend coming up!
Everyone in the gulf - stay safe!! |

La has declared State of Emergency. Mississippi Emergency Management Agency has moved to Level III. I might be moving to a forward staging area tomorrow

Hey guys, this is no joke. Here's the latest assessment
As it stands now landfall of the eye is forecasted to be approximately 0500 HRS Wednesday, August the 29th (exactly 7 years to the date of Hurricane Katrina made its devastating landfall). While Katrina official made landfall as a Cat 3, Cat 4 and 5 conditions were impacting the Mississippi Gulf Coast well prior to landfall; and this is similar to conditions that Isaac appears to be displaying.

BusterB & John - you need to start moving north. Here's our latest assessment:
With the current shift to the west Mississippi is on the dreaded Northeast quadrant. This means Mississippi will get large amounts of wind up to 80 mph sustained, rain over 15” in some areas, and surge 8-13 ft along the Coast. The path of the storm is still not completely certain, nor is the intensity of the storm, and weather conditions could change and shift the storms track as well as hinder strength, but as it stands now Mississippi will be on the receiving on of some of the worst of the storm fury. The latest update has slight shift to the left, the best thing for Mississippi now is for the storm to either speed up and move on through, or shift further to the west. It is still a tropical storm; however with its current speed, as it churns over the warm Gulf Water, it will develop into a hurricane, and if it does not speed up could grow to a high Cat II.
