Didnt they put up a bunch of people in the dome one time during a cane? If I remember right everyone was very upset.

recon due into the storm again around 11AM--don't know whether data will be available in time for the 11AM advisory. They were a little out of sync last night, with stunning pressure difference between advisory estimate and recon data following shortly thereafter. (963 vs 950 mb)

Then there are always the disaster wishcasters...don't get me started on that one.

I'll have to admit to a slightly sick pleasure in watching these storms. Maybe it's a simple sense of awe, but deep down there's that weird desire for destruction.

"Has anyone heard anything about the Mobile/Foley Alabama area yet? I am trying not to get to excited this time around. At first I thought that this area was going to miss the bullet, but since there will be a second landfall, things have changed."

I haven't, but maybe someone will chime in. It's good to not be an alarmist - you'll live longer! But it is smart to stay posted. Those things can take an unexpected turn at almost any time and you have to be ready.

Yes they did and they probably won't again unless it's an absolutely necessary last minute emergency. The folks that sheltered there stole everthing that wasn't tied or bolted down (and some things that were).

I've been tracking storms for 20 years....this has the potential to be historic...it reminds me of gilbert right before it bombed out to a cat 5..the thing is just huge area wise and the circulation/influence id now from the LA coast all the way back to central america
the outflow is the best i have ever seen in the atlantic basin(esp south and east) looks more like a western pacific super typhoon then an atlantic basin storm
have they issued an evacuation yet for NO? it takes 60-72 hours to complete and we are now under that..more like 58 or so now

This is starting to sound more like an Irwin Allen Production.

Evac orders are starting to trickle in. N.O. contraflow "may" begin by 4:00PM.

Thanks! I've saved it and will read it later - after I go get some batteries for the flashlights and gas up the car. By the by, I took biochem, gen chem, and organic chem this summer (for my nursing degree). Sure could've used your help! LOL

Greetings from Panama City Beach!

In your opinion, could the hurricane possibly swing back in this direction? I sure don't wish this on ANY body - it's been pretty rough, though, over on this end of Florida.
Thanks, JJ!

And, as far as I can remember, no one was arrested for theft - even though they were all on video carrying the stuff out.

Yes it is. Perhaps .............."A Voyage to the Bottom Of New Orleans"?

The cone of uncertainty spans from the western tip of Louisiana into the Florida Panhandle. All eyes in the Northern Gulf of Mexico should be watching the path of this storm very closely.

Strange, huh, considering I've often been in the path.
