Looks like Lee will hang around NOLA a few days, then stagger back to Alabama |

2. We're having some really nice breezes right now with not-so-hard rain. |

The really strong weather is supposed to come on Sunday. I hope it won't cause any problems.

3. Our forecast, 90 miles north of Mobile, calls for rain tomorrow!!?? |
|
But looking at the maps, the tracking, the radar loops, I don't see it. All the projections are for it to hit us late Sunday. Still, they just changed the forecast this afternoon from 30% to 90% rain for the whole weekend.

13. White stuff called "snow" actually falls from the air! |

And sometimes it accumulates on the ground!
Usually a few inches but occasionally a couple of feet. Shoveling it off the walkway is GREAT exercise!

8. I guess it'll be early to mid-morning when it comes through my area. It depends |

on how slow- or fast-moving it is. Generally, if we haven't had a hurricane by late August or early September, it's doubtful we'll have one at all; there are always exceptions to the rule to be concerned about, though.
I hope your area won't have any problems, either. You're as close to the water as I. Our home is in between the Mississippi River & Pontchartrain Lake (huge lake). The Gulf of Mexico is probably a 100 miles away, but considering all the bodies of water surrounding us, we're practically in a soup bowl.
Take care, dixiegrrrrl. :hi:

10. Hey pacalo...poor LA has had way too much crap thrown at it. |
|
And we both know a 100 miles inland means little when there is nothing but flat low lying land between the Gulf and our houses..
I picked our area because we are a whopping 464 feet above sea level....lol.

14. (Putting dixiegrrrrl on hold...) Is that the BEST YOU COULD DO, LEE? |
|
Sorry, dixiegirrrrl -- The tropical storm was nothing more than rain, rain, rain with gusty winds.
Nothing to worry about. :hug:

7. Aw, thanks, liberaltrucker. |

:hi:
We're used to this nasty weather at this time of year. As long as the roads are okay to drive on, we'll be fine. :)
