From someone in the New Orleans forum to you guys... my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Please be safe!

 

Right back at'ya.

 

Yes, right back at ya, it looks like you all could get the worst of it, if it keeps moving east

 

Thanks for the prayers. After this morning's report, it looks like SE Louisiana is Rita's target.

I pray that these people are able to evacuate safely. Take care up there.

 

Lest we forget... Current death toll from Katrina is at 1,069, with 832 from New Orleans.

Let's hope this won't happen again with Rita.

 

so sad ..., starting to get a slight breeze and the weather temp drop alot

 

anyone hear from Yzer

 

hey chea, you're staying ? my parents got out and is now up here in Austin with me.

 

gettin pretty windy in the katy area...

 

Katy will be okay, I think. I live around I-10 and Hwy 6, and looking at the latest forecast, I am well outside the cone (it keeps shifting to the east). Sustained wind speed now projected around 60-65 mph for our area -- I'd say that's manageable.

Keep our fingers crossed.
