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.
That would really make a mess

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.

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.

Boy that map is confusing! Just goes to show you how unpredictable these things can be.

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.

Thanks for checking up on me Eruanna. Smile

Ellisk: I am so glad you are safe! Big Hug Big Hug

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...

Love, Eruanna

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

I'm not Ellisk (obviously) but I had these lying around and thought they might come in handy.

Oh, and so the four legged members of your family can be comfortable too...

And wasn't there one more thing? OH! A rain coat. Well, that's about the best I can offer...

Seriously, though, hope you and yours make it through this one okay. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
