Here We Go Again. Hurricane Sally is on the Way.

[pappymac]

Tropical storm Sally is forecast to be Hurricane Sally with maximum sustained winds of 80 mph when it makes landfall in Louisiana on Tuesday. The track this morning has it going in west of the Mississippi River near Grand Isle. We live close to the Mississippi state line, so we will be on the east side of the storm.

I still have most of the supplies laid in from the last hurricane and this one is expected to be a Cat 1 hurricane.

Touching bases with Daughter in Mandeville, she’s ready, my C-130 gun ship girl is a trooper, I know she’s got it in hand.

Stay safe and prayers are with you.

Y’all South Louisiana guys stay safe down there.

Hang tough my fellow south Louisianians!

There's about six of these things lined up in the Atlantic. This could get real ugly for you folks in the hurricane zones.

Prayers and best thoughts to all of you. Another storm out in the Atlantic I thought was a miss turns out to be headed for Bermuda. This is a rough year. I have a friend in Mandeville, not in the best health, so thank you Brad for reminding me to give him encouragement. If I were a hurricane, I wouldn't get in your daughter's way. New Orleans has been a destination for me since 1970 or so, so I keep my fingers crossed. First honeymoon there in October 1976.

The one's in the Atlantic are all headed north and don't look like they will make landfall in the U.S.

Just looking at the photos of Gulf Shores, what a mess! Do people really think their boats won't get destroyed or washed up on land? Boat insurance for the area should go through the roof. I drag mine far inland when a hurricane is approaching because I like my boat and I don't want to pay the ridiculous cost of boat insurance.

Sally passed thru SC today. There's flooding everywhere, but luckily I faired okay. Prayers for those who didn't.

And here comes Delta because we haven't seen enough hurricane action along the gulf coast this year.

(Crap, I thoughtthat I was posting this here, when I posted it in another thread)

Mrs Cosmic is making a list of things to prepare here, even though the last storm didn't even deliver us any rain. I will get everything tied down, even though I'm not holding my breath.

I hope all of you guys stay safe, and lets hope this peters out. It doesn't seem to be causing a huge rush to escape on the interstate yet. I judge storms now by whether they turn the whole of 65 into one-way traffic north.

Better call the shrimp guy one more time before it hits! ?

Man, it’s been a real bad year for y’all. Hope everybody comes through ok!

 

[mso489]

Hurricane Sally is long gone, but there are currently two storms rummaging around the Gulf of Mexico, one primed to hit the U.S. Gulf Coast. It's been a remarkable year, some sort of a record I believe.

 

[kcghost]

You guys are really catching it this year. My sympathy.

As of noon today (Wed Oct 7th)

Looks like it’s headed through Crowley, Abbeville, Opelousas, Lafayette, if it keeps that track. Lake Charles is still messed up from the last one, from what I hear. Looks like they’ll catch a good bit of it again, too.
