Gustav
Attachment 953
The Morton computer model has the rath of nature smiting my humble abode. Louisiana is spared according to the Mortunsus linear degredation cycling anamoly. The rest of the models appear to disagree with this advanced system. Last edited by pgardn : 05-09-2009 at 10:45 AM. |

Looks like I am going to have to evacuate here by tomorrow morning
It's going to be a monster from the looks of it! Took months to recover from Hurricane Rita 3 years ago..Everyone is just now getting back to "normal", and here comes another one |

Gustav has strengthened even sooner then expected. It is already a category 3. By the time it hits the gulf where the water temps are in the upper 80's it may strengthen even more. I hope everyone is prepared this time.

Yup it's going to be bad, very bad. Things are so much better this time now that Blanco is gone and Jindal is Governor. If anyone gets left it's completely 10000% their own fault. They began assisted evacs this am, 700 buses rolling, amtrack, flight, contraflow begins tomorrow, Fema is here, Paulson is VERY GOOD, national guard deployed, Chertoff is here and Nagin is being told what to do by the State and Fed. No matter where it hits they are much more prepared, already activated and ready to move. We are on the bad side which will push water up the river, bayous and into the lake no matter where it lands, I'm sure the levees will fail again, but it seems almost everyone is leaving this time. No excuses this time about being poor, elderly or disabled.....the state, fed and local are doing their job this time all over the gulf coast..I think, I know for sure Louisiana and Mississippi. Hope it's the same in Texas as it is here We'll know in about 24 more hours where it should hit, wherever it is it will be bad. We're staying put, generators ready, lots of fuel and food, worried about the tornados though. Once again good luck to all in the gulf wherever you end up...and keep you eye on Hanna, that's following the Katrina/Rita path, back to back hurricanes possible. Oh and Coach I think that will be 7+ for gas..... |

it's raining here pretty good, wasn't supposed to get here for another day.
just talked to a friend who lives in st. francisville la. he has two holes in his roof now, with five trees down in the backyard. damn squirrels! hope everyone in the area down there comes thru all this ok. still baffled that some choose to stay. and in doing so, which i doubt they care, they endanger the lives of those who then have to rescue them.

Well, Thank Goodness it weakend before hitting where it did..It really could have been so much worse. I am here in the Beaumont area (the ugly city ) and we have'nt even had any of the rains yet. The wind has picked up some, but not like we had feared a few days ago.
They did issue a mandatory evacuation here yesterday, but I chose to wait until all the traffic died down, then saw that I was'nt going to have to leave after all |
