Hurricane Tracking 2012

Hopefully they'll wise up fast Jack. It will be stronger tomorrow and Tues.

The rain has been mostly light. Looking at Radar the heaviest rain is north and east of this area.

I hope its gone by 6PM. Our band does a weekly Monday evening show in Oxford (west end of "The Villages" area). Too much rain and it will keep the people away.

Its been a long day. Finishing clearing the patio and yard of UFO's and got a load of sand bags just in case. I have a large CharGrill BBQ and for now I used the sand bags around it to keep it from rolling away as it on the covered patio. My brother and his wife came up from New Orleans this morning. Watched the traffic jamb on I-10 in New Orleans with people heading West. My local Shell station was out of gas this morning. Glad I topped up yesterday. Isaac is still a tropical storm but may reach Cat 1 before land fall. Nice breeze this afternoon and the clouds coming in from the East gave us a beautiful sunset.

Well, we dodged a bullet here in the Tampa area. The upper Gulf coast is not going to be that lucky. I hope its not as bad as the predictions. I've been through several Hurricanes while at Keesler AFB (Biloxi).

Isaac is still a Tropical Storm and may be a Cat 1 at landfall around 10PM tonight at the mouth of the Mississippi river.

If this storm stays on the latest track
It will come right up over Arkansas, we do really need rain,way too dry . still under a state burn ban, our farmers need mositure to get their Fall crops planted.
We all know they need to try and get feed for their animals , as well as market, if at all possible,
so far they have lost almost everything from this drought.
Remember us all in your prayers.

It is not a Cat 1 Hurricane. I just heard from a friend in Hattiesburg, MS. They are getting some outer band rains.
