Yep, batten down the hatches. Looks like tomorrow between 8 & 10a Isaac will make landfall down near New Orleans.

Good thoughts for everyone down your way. Hope it loses some punch in the next 10-12 hrs.

I don't think they have power where Troop is located.

We still have power...wind has the power lines bouncing so it has flickered a few times today...has not been too bad our way just yet..maybe half dozen or so limbs down in the back yard.....I'll get pics of the aftermath for you all..and compare to Gustav pics...which went right smack over top of us in '08...rain started about an hour ago...depending on where this thing goes it could not be all that bad...PMC You are gonna get some of this too I'd imagine...

Thanks for the thoughts everyone...Hopefully it is over soon...too bad it started raining..I was going to go out and start sanding on the cap...

Well we got lucky in my location...just a little rain and little wind...storm stayed east of us so we got the weakside for sure....

I'm guessing PMC is getting alot more rain...hope not too much wind...


Just some smaller branches for the burn pile....

Not to make light of it, because the storm did affect the people along the coast. However, since it turned out to be a non-event for most of us (thankfully!), I thought this was pretty funny/clever... Glad the worst of it missed you.

Hey PMC, Very glad to hear you and yours came through A-OK...:D

Very, very sad to see the tragedy that has befallen the lawn chair...I'll never forget!:p
