I have been through a bunch of them working 38 years in the Gulf of Mexico. Even a 2 can tear up a lot near the eye.

Paul, looks like you better 'batten down the hatches'. Latest forecast I saw had it going in about Morgan City and that's gonna put you right in the bullseye for the bad winds and rain. Do you think the levees are gonna hold? Will the pumps work?

If the current forecast are right, by the time the center gets this far north, it will be way east of us. Looks like gust to maybe 50 and a little rain is all we'll get.

Keep your head down.

Good luck, hope it fizzles.

I'm not afraid of them however I have great respect for potential damage they can bring.

Make damn sure the insurance is up to date.

The house that I am in didn't flood during Katrina. It is one of 4 in the neighborhood that did not. The recent levee upgrade cut my flood insurance rate in half. I think I am reasonably well protected from flooding. I am sitting on ready to evacuate. Also well prepared to hunker down.

One year ago today Laura hit SW LA. Lake Charles had 2 hours of 150 mph wind, the destruction was epic, no power for 3 weeks and a month later Delta. Much of LC is still ruins, Google “Capital One building pics”, I’m told it is not salvageable and will be imploded. Since Calcasieu Parish didn’t vote for our Democrat governor or Bidet, outside help has been almost non-existent.


Imagine a corporate oligarchy so effective, so advanced and fine tuned that its citizens still call it a democracy.

NOAAs forecasting is lagging with this one just like it did with Laura and Michael. I think this one will make Cat 5. Laura was nasty. It peeled bricks off houses. I don't know why it didn't get much press.

I pulled and cut a big dead oak a couple weeks ago that was leaning over my camp. Was all my truck winch could hold to keep it off the roof. Glad it's down before this storm rolls in. Hurricane Laura put down 5 trees all around my house, but I was very fortunate on how they fell.

Looking like Cocodrie, Dulac, and Houma will endure the brunt of the storm. Lot of folks in the Houma area.

We are just far enough west at this point to be ok, maybe, as long as it does not turn west at all.

Yes he is but Mike is no stranger to hurricanes,,just hope it doesn’t stall and ease westward. Good luck, Mike.

Just got back from the fish camp, had to run back down and get the boat and tie everything down. The camp is north of Morgan City about 22 miles as the crow flies and the eye of Ida as currently projected will go right over us.
It’s guessed to hit Morgan City as a category 3-4 with a 10-14’ surge depending on who you listen to.

There’s an Ole Boy that lives by himself right across from me and right on the Lake facing south who insists on staying. He’s had a stroke and is handicapped.Tried to get him to load up and come north with me but he wouldn’t come. Told me that he’s got 3 cases of Miller Lite iced down and he wasn’t worried. I’ll be checking on him via cell phone.

Traffic on interstate 10 is a mofo westbound.

Hope the fellow on the lake makes it ok.

Think you'll be far enough north to be ok?
