The effect of a still photo is not as informative as being able to tilt, pan, zoom in and zoom out at will.
A pretty neat little program.........
Thanks for posting that link. I searched and searched on the National Weather Service sight, and couldn't find it before.
The seawall is 20 feet tall. East of the lake or west of the lake, this will force the water over it.
Amen to that my friend. Then if the exact post is not repeated, you have no idea what post they are asking about.
Montgomery TV just said that GUlf Water levels are already rising in Mobile Bay and that coastal area of Dauphin Island are ALREADY flooding.
The problem is the lake is on the east side. The storm is going to hit it head on. The thing that will wreck NO is the water flowing out of the lake and into the city.
And if you have flown into NO, you know its a big, big lake.
On the other hand, if you ever lived through a Blizzard in the northeast (or any place) you will get used to the media hype.
My god, there are people getting nervous here!
Wrong. Graphics under 50K are allowed. That graphic was 40K.
4 PM CONTRAFLOW WILL STOP!
They are everywhere there, right in the middle of everything, and not even in buildings. Pop up and flying through the air.
I can't get my proverbial brain around this thing. I keep thinking something will happen to change this.

... and just how the hell would Fox News know what they are talking about? Even the news people in Houston have no clue how the industry operates. Platforms and rigs shut in drilling and production on the sea floor. Drilling rigs disconnect from the BOP's and most floaters will head for harbor. Production platforms and jackups take what precautions they can and then remove all personnel. Some will in fact collapse but that does not mean they were not secured as best they could be. You damn sure can't move them.
Slightly more energy than a sonic boom, wouldn't you say? It's like you equating 20 foot swells for surfing to 20 ft tsunami waves. There is no comparison when it comes to the sustained energy.

Remember Dennis.
Never say die.
A nice thought. But the DUers are already blaming this hurricane on Bush for "causing global warming" and saying the the war in Iraq will take money from relief efforts. They take anything and twist it to suit their agenda.
Oh Lord--no.
She does appear to be turning, just slower then forcast.
