Been watching it on the news here. Yikes! To all those in the affected areas, be safe!
goodness! best vibes guys!!!
That is one beautiful storm!! I know, it can and will cause a lot of damage, but it is still beautiful. I also think tornados are a beautiful sight to behold, even though the are so deadly.
Well, this may not be so true. Yes, it is in the gulf over some very warm water. But, when I look at this picture, I see that the western side of the storm is not quite as dense and it almost appears that some dry air is trying to find it's way into the storm. This may prevent further strengthening and could weaken it some, but it will not stop it. May God be with the people and animals who will be in the path of this storm. It's going to be a rough one.
It's a 5 now!
Yes, I wanted to use this post to ask for GOOD VIBES for my family. I am from Lake Charles, La. That is where all of my family still is. Except for my mom and dad whom live in a very small town called Bell City, La. which is about 20 miles east of Lake Charles. Lake Charles is a little over 2 hours west of New Orleans. Hopefully they wont get very much of it.

Wow, I just saw this that katrina is now a 5 with winds of 175 mph. Guess the little bit of wind shear I saw, had no chance at slowing it down. We have a cat named Katrina, she is such a sweet loving girl. I don't think this storm is going to be so kind and sweet. Whether you believe in God or not, I think we all need to say some prayers for the people in the path of this storm. They are going to need it.
The Mayor is demanding mandatory evacuation of the entire city of New Orleans.
We have family 30 miles north of New Orleans. I hope everyone follows the authoritys warnings. Everyone stay safe please.
Boy, they are saying this may be "catastrophic" for New Orleans! I hope and pray that the residents there, listen and leave New Orleans!
They are saying that they could see gas prices go uo to $3.25-$3.50 or more per gallon! OUCH
They are saying that they could see gas prices go uo to $3.25-$3.50 or more per gallon! OUCH
The oil companies will think of ANYTHING to raise prices wont they!
now CAT 5
let's hope it swings anywhere outside new orleans
They are talking about the last hurricane that hit New Orleans back in 65. It was a cat 4 and in the year 2000 dollars, it cost 8 billion in damage. They are also saying that the levees and pumps are no match for this storm.
Words just don't seem enough do they. My thoughts are with everyone who will be affected by this. I'm hoping for a miracle to spare those in its way.
They definitely need to be in our thoughts over there. New Orleans is SO far below sea level and on top of that is shaped like a bowl so this storm is going to cause some horrendous flooding. Stay safe everyone over there, and please, get the heck out of there!
Everyone down that way PLEASE be careful! Hoping you all stay safe!
I was out of town with my family. I'm a but worried too, my grandparents live in Georgia at the top where part of Katrina is in path with. I do hope that they are alright.

This thing is a 5 now, and Hurricane Camille, the most famous one, was a 4 in 1969. I am so sorry I posted this. I feel really guilty. It's not supposed to be fun, this is awful. If I could fly down and help everyone I would. We are sending huge prayers and vibes to ALL Tcs members and their kitties and everyone along the Gulf.

Eddie - don't be sorry to post the news of this. It's our way of showing that we care for those who we know down there and all those we have never talked to as well. But I know what you mean - it's sad that the news is that it has strengthened and not weakened.
