Nothing new, not since the day it ate a boat and tried to swallow the crew as well.

The "spaghetti" models are showing Morgan City getting hit. I have a feeling that it going to be like Andrew, which is bad for the folks in Baton Rouge.

Jim Cantore in Nola not a good sign. 24 hrs ago I was talking to my mother-in-law in Mobile, making sure she was prepped. An hour ago, she was calling us.

Get your generator ready.

The Weather Channel and the rest of the media want to build it up as Katrina 2 as much as possible. The hysteria is incredible. At the end of last week, the computer models were moving the storm away from Florida, but that didn't fit with their big story, so they hardly mentioned it. Now those same models are showing a hit around Morgan City. I trust the models (certain ones more than others) more than I trust the NHC track, which basically picks the middle between the two most extreme models.

The surge and heavy rain are a concern with this storm. Looks like it's going to stall over Louisiana.

The pumps are the problem. And I don't think they fixed the issue.
