Riding out the storm in the 504 - Isaac Update from New Orleans

[Brian Manzella]

For the many people who may be wondering, are concerned, or have already asked, myself, my wife Lisa, and our puppy daughter Bailey, are staying at home and riding out the probable cat2 Hurricane named Isaac.

We may lose power at some point, so I may not be able to answer this thread at some point.

The mayor did not call for an evacuation, and everyone I know is staying.

Nonetheless, as a community and individually, we need some luck and certainly as many prayers as possible.

I'll update this thread as needed and when I can.

Thanks,

Brian

U must have read my mind.

Keep us updated for sure. I am sure in that part of the world after Katrina these things take on a whole new meaning.
I know after the tornado took out part of the place I grew up I pay way more attention when they have warnings.

Good Luck. Prayers already said.

Good Luck

Good luck, and I've prayed my prayer so I hope there will be some positive placebo effect in that.

Like Ben Hogan said, "I want everybody pulling for me..."

Like Ben Hogan said, "I want everybody pulling for me..."

Best of luck to you and your family. But, I also hope you have a contingency plan/row boat/fresh water stored up stairs/stock pile of non-perishable food for at least a week...ready just in case.

[mgreer]

definitely you're in our prayers sounds like they're calling for more rain than Katrina, be safe!

 

[Brian Manzella]

So far so good.

Storm is still in the Gulf and we are all boarded and shuttered up.

Right now in New Orleans....medium wind, no more than 25, sometimes laying down to 10.

No rain yet.

Hope all goes well. Stay safe.
