ICE & SHADOW Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Well it looks like Louisiana is now in the direct path , but the other gulf coast states are not out of the clear. Please make preperations to keep you (family) and your animals safe during this time if you haven't already. Hopefully this thing doesn't do to much damage, but if you prepare for the worst, and hope for the best, then you should be good to go....

Removed #5 Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Looks like it's predicted to make land fall as a Cat 1, that's not too bad, just a strong breeze (74 - 90 mph winds) Guess I need to call my brother after the fact, he lives in north central Mississippi. Of course, all of you who are in the area - and I see rain all the way from Florida around to Mississippi - be careful! It still has something like 36 hours to make up its mind where to go and they've been known to end up on the other side of the Gulf of Mexico in that time! Aye, [MENTION=165]ice[/MENTION] & Shadow it looks like you're gonna get wet, Take care!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleLuka Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 yeah im worried about New Orleans. but i think Katrina was a 3 and isaac is only expected to be a 1! i was just in Nola week before last and it's still got areas that are damaged it really doesn't need anything else.

Removed #5 Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 As of 10:30 local last evening, there were 19 casualties from his hurricane, not a good sign. Slow moving with a high storm surge - just what NOLA needs again! Heavy rain - because it's moving so slowly. Almost all the predictions now predict it making landfall Tuesday evening just west of NOLA ( which means NOLA is going to be on the wet side! ) and everyone from the east coast of Florida around the Gulf to Houston is getting wet - get out the boats, cause this is going to be along wet ride. To everyone in its path, take care guys, and stay dry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Removed #5 Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 [MENTION=7406]LittleLuka[/MENTION], you should be getting some now! Well, okay, just checked - you're up by Memphis - it looks like Isaac won't be up there ( if it gets there with any strength at all ) till Wed / Thur. Maybe, if you're lucky he won't have dropped all his water when he gets there. Still calling for cat 1 at landfall, with pressure continuing to drop slowly ... as I said before, this is going to be a long wet week!! Isaac is a large tropical cyclone. A dangerous storm surge...heavy rainfall...and strong winds extend well away from the center and are expected to affect a large portion of the northern Gulf Coast. For this reason...it is important not to focus on the exact center location. The threat of heavy rainfall and flooding is also expected to spread inland over the lower Mississippi Valley region during the next few days.

Zoya&EisasMom Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Spoke with a good friend of mine who lives in the NOLA area....she tells me everyone down there is very nervous right now. All the local officials seem to be well prepared this time. I sure hope so...NOLA can't take another hit like Katrina. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Removed #5 Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 There was an article on NPR yesterday talking about everyone stocking up in preparation for whatever it is that comes on shore. One of the comments was that the major stores already have trucks with stock setting "up north" waiting till it bows through so they can get new stock in place to replace whatever has been sold out or blown away! Rita, Katrina - no they don't really need another visit from the another hurricane .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was hit very hard during Katrina, the media just didn't make it as public. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
