Well, if you're here posting, I'll assume you're all ready, right?
Someone reported that cajun girl, who lives 50 miles from NO, is in MO (they think). She has not posted for several days.
Yep, we're ready...rode out Andrew here (not to make a foolish comparison to *this* storm)...
Louisiana Hwy. 1 is an alternate route out from New Orleans and areas south and southeast of here.
La. 1 is two blocks from my home, plenty traffic heading north but police are working the traffic signals and keeping things flowing.
Ice is nearly sold out here but all gas sations are still pumping as of 2:50 pm....
I picked up the normal necessities but if the power is out for an extended time I'm ready to head west for a few days...
If there are ANY homebound Freepers here within my area that can't get out to buy extra batteries, water, etc. by all means post here and I'll try and help out anyway I can before the I-10 bridge is closed...
