"Because they've been told repeatedly "Florida, Florida, Mobile, Mobile!"

and now, "Biloxi, Biloxi, Biloxi!"

They won't be saying "New Orleans, New Orleans, New Orleans!" just yet. Look for that warning to come out around midnight.

Under the Superdome roof may be the last place I would want to be in this stuff.

I hope they have a great waterproof foundation/basement...

all high school football games in the state have been canceled.

Now that's serious trouble.

Better safe than sorry.

You're right.

You must be glad you are in Baton Rouge. I would not want to be anywhere east of there for the next day and a half! :=)

I do hope Brit has enough men and blow on hand. She won't need much clothing as she doesn't wear much.

It is the most beautiful day in BR with gusts of wind, really beautiful. We are on a lake and it is shimmering with waves. The fishermen are out, a bass boat is right at the end of my back yard!

----Britney Spears house may be in the crosshairs tonight!----

Ivan's about to take her place as "The Ride of Louisiana".

Ivan appears to be undergoing a Rapid Intensification Cycle right now, convection is quickly expanding and wrapping around the center. I would not be surprised to see the pressure come down a good bit on the next recon date.

I think that's a smart thing to do! I believe most people are taking this as serious as it really is.

Britney Spears house may be in the crosshairs tonight!

She may want to consider pulling up her pants for a change.

We are okay here. Just chocked full of people. :)

Good test for our infrastructure. Police were busy all night escourting people to shelter. The highways are still crowded and the town is bustling. We still have gasoline available. Food still in stores. Bottled water and batteries are gone, for now.

The stores are very busy and alot of people are on the streets, to-ing and fro-ing.

We've had one small weather band move through. Nothing much, just a little nudge to get people going, I guess. I know it motivated me. :) They say much more is on the way and I am busy.

We have been warned we will lose power and probably be without for days. NOTHING to compare with what is going on a few miles South.

Prayers for everyone, God bless. I'll be lurking but unless I hear something that would help others, I'm out.

Peace and calm to the storm. Pray folks.
