I don't know how bad this will be, but it is now Hurricane Ophelia.
PLEASE send prayers now. No one knew how hard Katrina would be.
Elliska, if you are reading this, PLEASE check in with us, will you?
Prayers going out now...

I really hope nothing happens like it did with Katrina.

I'm lighting a candle for the gulf coast... again. I keep telling myself that people are never given more than they can handle. Perhaps Ophelia, like her namesake, will be pulled down by her own weight and not cause more heartache in an already grieving portion of the country. All we can do now is hope and pray. _________________ An Infinite Source of Pervy Wisdom. |

They have no idea where this one is going. As long as it stays in the relatively cool Atlantic, it shouldn't get as bad as Katrina. If it decides to cross Florida...lookout

I appreciate your posting the info, Inglor. I was unfamiliar with that site; it's great to have an alternative to pop-up - I mean, uh, weather.com.

I have been offline a lot recently and didn't see this. Looks like the poor folks in the Carolinas or Georgia are going to have their turn with Ophelia. I hope it stays a tropical storm and moves east instead of west.

Ellisk: I am so glad you are safe!
I worry about my e-pals...case in point, a friend I met on a dog rescue list...she was displaced by Katrina...
Please think of US thinking of YOU!
Continued prayers going out...

Hey Ellisk - can you send me a raincoat? And some of those sexy high water boots.
