Here in Northeast Mississippi we will have many officials waking up with egg on their faces because of the wimp this storm turned into.

All non-essential functions in the city of Columbus and at Columbus AFB were shut down for today. Predictions of 65 mph winds, 10 inches of rain and 500-1000 trees down will, thankfully, be something we can now joke about. I haven't seen any official numbers but it looks like we got less than 2 inches of rain. The wind wouldn't amount to a West Texas fart.

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I truly feel for the officials that have to make the decisions about what to do with these storms...they're danged if they do and danged if they don't.

I'm sure having egg on their face is a sight more comfortable than if they had done little or nothing and Dennis turned into a lion instead of a lamb.
