It's a Tropical Low now. Just a low-pressure zone. At MOST you'll get some thunderstorms, and MAYBE wind gusts of 30 mph, which is enough to push things like lawn chairs.

You're safe, it's just a strong thunderstorm now.

I'm getting a lot of rain from it. And, quite frankly, we need it. DESPERATELY!

You I'm amazed. That damn storm has made it all the way to my area. Its going to be rain here til about 8 or 9 am (est). Guess my orginal thought that the storm wouldnt make it past Gamer2's area was wrong.

Come one who didnt see the New Orleans would get flooded I expected to hear at least 3-5 feet, and now they have between 10 and 15 feet. They were going to get the worst after all the city is 20 feet below sea level how couldnt they have gotten flooded.

I've also heard that Alabama, Kentucy and maybe south Ohio will be flooded. Ohio I havent heard they they are flooded as of yet but who knows. Luc may have to jump in a boat and head for high ground... if he can find any in the Great Plains.
