Hey Randy You are going to get WET
I have been looking at the storm track for Katrina.
Pretty scary... 20 foot storm surge for New Orleans and some reports have the current sustained wind speeds at 170+ mph.
The projected track has it over middle Tennessee by Wednesday.
Batten down the hatches.

Yes is certainly does look like we are gonna get soaked! Hopefully the storm with break up in intensity before it gets up here from the gulf. We have been in a very bad drought. So bad the wells in the area of very low and going dry.........mine included. The hay fields are looking really spotty and the grass is stunted. We need that rain REALLY bad; just not all on one big gulley washer. I will keep you guys posted on how the Hurricane plays out.

These same storm systems are often the same ones that cause our monsoons in the SW. It depends on a lot of things, but when the low pressure hits in that area, the moisture gets driven right into NM in a week or so after the storm is over on the Gulf coast.

You aren't the only one. I look to be in the center of the strike box now. Have you seen the wind speeds today? 165 mph earlier. Hopefully it will slow a little over night.
I suspect it will slow a little before it hits TN. Might be carrying my barn roof by then.

Hey Randy You are going to get WET
I was working in Mexico for a year. It was a little difficult to keep writing as I only had e-mail at work and not playing with tractors.
I moved the family out just after Ivan and we returned for Katrina.

Sagacity, I had to look that one up. I need a bigger vocabulary.
For you guys and anyone else in the storm path, good luck.

Well, the rain has started. So far just a light showers no wind. The folks in New Orleans and gulf coast area are taking a pounding.

Hey Randy You are going to get WET
I saw that hurricane coming. Glad I left Tennessee on Friday. Looked ok on Thursday, but now it looks like where I had been working will get a bunch of rain.
I hope everyone makes it. But initial reports I've read seem to indicate the usual amount of stupid people now begging for help. Sigh... I hope the ones wise enough to seek shelter are all ok. Darwin wil take care of the rest...
