Just listening to KPLC TV. Some idiot was driving an 18 wheeler across a bridge on I 10 and got blown right over the edge. No one can get to whoever it was because of the storm.

That guy was stuck on stupid. Did I hear right that that bridge was better than 100 feet up in the air?

Now they're talking to some guy on a boat in the port of St. Charles?? Said he is not going off the boat. Said he's on a "156" "Crew boat". Shipping vessel originating out of Cameron. Said he's got a few big boats around them.

(I heard that stuff about the 18-wheeler. Mayor said they have no clue about the fate of the driver and no-one will be going to check on him. I pray he's alright and can find some shelter, but they said those bridges are over 100 ft. high... as the reporter said - who in their right mind...)

aw, jeez, you would think a trucker would know not do that...I have seen truckers pull over up here in Arlington, when it is really windy...

I just was looking at the picture of the hurricane and the windy conditions...whoa....the DARK red part hasn't even made landfall yet...and it is bad..
