This storm's comming up my street tuesday evening!!! I'll be here in Gretna Louisiana with 80yr old dad. He's in good shape. But stubburn. Just hope it comes in from east of us. Mississippi surely doesn't!! We'll leave if/when the electricity goes, if its safe. Temps will jump back to the 90's soon after. So I go to the a/c. Endured Katrina(7 years to the day) in the 8 plex we own. We watched our flat roof above the second floor peel off to cover some tenants cars in the parking lot. Rain took about 30 mins to come thru ceiling to us. We now have a pitch roof. I hope they actually used hurricane clips forming it. Then went to my house 2 miles away,which was fine but no electric. And would be 12 days to restore. Stayed one miserablle night(90's day-80's night veryhumid) and drove seven hours to dads brothers place in Sargent Texas,on the coast, where we enjoyed 10 nights with aunt and uncle. They were great. I fished and did well on their pier, lighted at night!! Bunch of 2-4lb specks!

Told dad if he gives me grief, I'd bring him to the Superdome or Convention Center. He said "no,no,no"! We'll be fine. LOL Just joking everyone.
