She's not coming into the Gulf. Steering currents will be moving her north. The high is what she is following...right now it's parked over her. She circle that high which will cause her to move north.
Great pics- thanks! Would love to see before and after pics of this in a few days.
Turn the camera around next time! 8<)

They need to leave. It's going to get bad there. They should count on power being out for a week or more.
Power out for a week ... Just before the election so ya can't hear the democratic lies 24/7 (er, ads.)
(Small blessings.)
Dear Lord...............
