Hurricane Laura

Any beeb members in the path of this massive storm?

 

I have family in the path. Of course only a couple were smart enough to leave and get out of the way.

 

I hope they make it out unscathed.

 

Good luck to everyone in it;s path. The news is reporting that his one is a killer.

 

4th 500-year flood in 5 years?

 

Parents are safe in McAllen. Went way farther to the East than once thought.

 

I’m leaving Jax in the morning headed to Dallas , if any beeb members need any supplies I’m happy to bring with me

 

Just some wind and rain here in the Baton Rouge area. Lake Charles is going to be bad.....

 

At the Ridge but wife in Breaux Bridge says a little wind and rain so far. West and south of there look Bad. Hope it ends well!!

Nothing they haven't seen before. They'll deal with it.

 

From the news, this one is different and much worse then what they've seen.

For the love of Gawd, I hope they are just "CNNing" this one.

 

Some of them are old enough to have seen Camille and Katrina. Others were in Florida for Andrew. They could have all been in a car and here in Georgia. I can't force people to leave.

 

Well, I spent weeks down around LC after Rita hit in 2005. That flattened everything in the area, not that there's much south of LC that isn't swamp and lakes.

Somewhere I have a photo of the old brick firehouse in Cameron. Everything up to about 15' is gone, except the steel columns. I met a guy in Oak Grove who was looking for his fishing boat, it had been moored in a marina there before the 24' wall of water rolled in

 

Probably a bit of both. A CAT5 is a monster and ignoring it makes you a fool. However the media will declare it historic and Trump's fault and global warming and whatever else scare mongering they can drum up.

Hope everyone in the area took it serious and cleared out.

 

I hope this one is CNN-d, too. But I remember hurricane Andrew and that storm nearly blew Florida off of the face of the Earth.

 

If we were only so lucky...

 

Sitting here in the dark in Alexandria. Windy and rainy.

 

South Fl. We didn't even get any feeder bands here in Orlando

 

Down to Cat-2 from what I'm reading.

 

Still 100MPH winds and it is all the way to Pirate Kansas. I have not read anything but I suspect there is a lot of suffering folks in French LA.
