Wow, Poobear, thanks for that! Folks, that's from NOAA, and they're calling for severe drought from Louisiana Eastward along the Gulf shore up through central Georgia. Puts me right in the middle of it. :-(
I think we need a very weak hurricane/tropical storm to take the Ivan track up through Alabama.
