Thank you much! Prayers are appreciated... This may be "the big one," the likes of which we haven't seen since the early '60s, and the likes of which New Orleans may have never seen in living memory. Time will tell..

No doubt about it. The Big Easy is going to get smoked. Anyone in that area, hang in there and brace for impact. Hope you come out unharmed and not too waterlogged.

On a lighter note, this is the ideal opportunity to indulge in some extreme commuting...

Last year I lived through Charlie, Frances and Jeane so Big Easy, you hang tough and I hope you get a lot of help with the recovery effort.

Yall should have seen I-10 West (in bound to Houston). It was worse than typical rush hour, very scary. Saw four LA plates on my way to work this morning. Prayers go out to those that decided to tough it out. I also hope that those stay around here stay safe also.
