Announcement, if anyone's curious: Preparing to evac, if necessary...

[PeterB]

If anyone's still reading this thread... we're probably leaving Saturday... I will spend tomorrow cleaning up, packing, etc.

Yes, as a matter of fact, I am still reading! I assume the "tomorrow" of your post is now the "today" of today? I came back to read what rankandfile and Rain had posted about being on the eastern versus western side of the storm. It ain't lookin' good, is it? The projected landfall I saw today shows it hitting to the west of NO. Of course, yes, I know a lot could still change. I think you're doing the right thing. Better a live wuss than a dead tough guy.

Alpha, yeah, it's really not looking good for this city. If it hits west of us, we'll get the eastern side, which is bad. http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphics...y#contents

How are you holding up, PeterB?

Good luck on you and your "family" coming through this OK.

We'll be watching out for you.
