Lets pray

Lets pray that these four tropical systems that are out there just go away...Gas prices are high enough and there are still thousands of folks from Katrina,Charley and Rita that are trying to recover...Not to mention storms from decades ago that left mental scars on many.

I hear ya saltfisher1...My prayers are sent....

I Been Saying Prayers For A While Now More Are Sent.

Yeah, its not looking to good, its going to hit, just not sure where, I wish them the best"

The weather channel and the local politicians in the northern gulf states are scaring the hell out of folks this time and its not even in the gulf yet....It may very well not follow the track theyre saying or it could...If it does not follow that track they have just lost peoples confidence in there forecasting and that could be a setup for a worse disaster in the future....They are really jumping the gun on this one causing panic and wasting valuable tax dollars on evacuation areas that may not need evacuating....They are morons.

Well I Guess The Tax Dollars Would Get Wasted Anyway Some Were, Now The Forecast Is Another Thing Though And The Government Has Been Getting On There Ass About This For Years. They Really Need To Get There Act Together And Start Getting There Forecasts In A Higher Percentage Of Being Correct Because To Many People Have Had A Loss Of Life, Hope There Right About This One And I Hope That The People Still Heed The Warning.

All it takes is a shift in the high pressure ridge or a weak point and that throws the forecast off by 10 to 200 miles.....Its easy to mess up .......I can understand that they want the folks of New Orleans to be safe but all they gotta do is have the buses in place and then yell"evacuate" with 48 hrs to go...Right now is the time to be yelling.."get ready"...Even after yelling evacuate there might be a few thousand idiots stay in there homes....I've been through so many of these things that I lost count and this storm is no different that the rest......"Stay out of flood zones, get out of weak structure, have plenty of food and water"...I followed these guidlines since I was a kid and it worked out ok....We never started getting bunkered in or evacuated until the 2 day impact period.

PS...."They got people jumping around like minnows in a bait bucket!"

Government for you, their either too little to late, or to much to early!!!!!

i will do double prayer duty .... my sister lives in mississippi on the coast. :!:

Prayer sent,best of luck to you all.

That dam storm is exploding now.....I think all gulf coast states are declaring state of emergency now......150mph I think.

Im Glad They Started Telling Them Folks To Get Out Now, The Traffic Jams Are Really Holding The People Back From Getting Out Lucky They Still Have A Few Hours Left. Prayers Are Being Sent Out From Minnesota To All That Is Affected.

Its looking like the possibility of another New Orleans flooding is inevitable....I hope it veers a little more to the west....Even though the wind speeds have dropped the damge will still be catastrophic in the New Orleans area if it hits there.

Man can try to predict the weather but there is only one that knows for sure what is going to happen, where, when and how. Prayers sent out from IL also.

Prayer sent

Well There Not Out Of The Woods But The Storm Has Really Weakened For Them, I Just Hope It Keeps Weakening As Time Goes On.

Yep....I think they might have dodged a bullet this time.
