Yes Ken , Katrina was the monster from 3 years ago, almost to the date, it was on Aug 29, 2005, I am way up in Kentwood 90 miles from New Orleans, I got some damage, mainly from wind and trees down on the top of my Cabana and in my pool, but I didn't see anything like those poor guys down south, it will be several more years before they will recover, and some probably never will rebuild.

Take a gander at this. (It'll be changing depending on when you actually look)


Tropical Storm GUSTAV

Problem is that this thing is gonna' have a whole bunch of warm water to strengthen in before it gets up into the northern Gulf.

I live about 180 miles from the coast & when both Camile & Katrina passed by their winds were still over 100 mph. Camile's left eye wall was about 2 miles east, Katrina's went straight over.

I am not looking forward to a repeat.

It looks as if we are in line for a direct hit, unless that thing decides to change and veer off the projected course, I sure hope something happens to change it.

Hopefully all you guys will get is a little rain and some wind. Hopefully no major damage. I am keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Yeah it's not looking good for the gulf coast, I hear hotels are already being booked way up here in Jackson and further north. Hope you guys on the coast will be making arrangments to leave...if you haven't already.
I had a tree on my house from Katrina 3 years ago. Nothing major though like other people, we considered ourselves lucky.
