Is that like, wasting away again in Margaretaville?
Turn west! Turn west!
Thanks for the Louisiana emergency info. The rain forecast is surely ominous.
Should we pray for a nice-sized hurricane to hit Texas? If so, I crank up the prayer machine for ya! LOL!
I follow the forecasts from the Hydrometerological Forecast Center closely, as my office is near a river which is prone to flood. I have never seen 24" plus of rain forecast on one of their maps before. If this forecast verifies, it will cause Katrina-like damage in New Orleans.
Looks like we will be on the dry side.
Wow that’s kinda’ weird, ‘Friday the Thirteen(th).’
They sure need the rain though in many parts of TX.
Wow...what a swath of 15 inch rain. I guess NOLA pumps will hold up, but the burbs are really gonna get hammered. According to the graphic my little spot in Texas is only going to get about an inch. That’s disppointiong. Maybe the storm will inch a little farther west.
I am gonna have a cloudy day! WOO-HOOO!
I saw this one brewing on Monday.
Go LEFT, young depression! Go LEFT!
