depends on who you listen to bluefrog :) :)

Hoping for the best and preparing for the worst....Frederick went over the line and it was not a pretty picture in Pascagoula afterwards.

House is boarded...stuff is ready to be packed ... ready to go if needed.

Good Afternoon fellow Mississippians! Looks like its going to be a close call for us. Whats got me a little disturbed is the ULL trough to our west has become almost stationary and looks to be weakening. This track by NHC could be shifted a little west because of this. What do ya'll think? :(

I personally think we are screwed. And, I think alot of people are blowing this storm off. I have a feeling and I certainly hope I am wrong (if I'm right my mom will be moving in with me) that this will end up being similiar to Frederic in 1979.

Thanks and good luck to you too!!


Husband is aggravated at me cause I won't put all the important papers in a box NOW and put it in the van NOW!

Just don't wanna do it if its going to FL/AL line and we just get TS stuff...we won't leave for that.....winds out of the north aren't bad...its the south that bothers me... I'm way too close to the water one house between me and the Gulf.

That diving trough south of Louisiana has stopped and is retreating. Ack.

Lived through the eye of Frederic (Lucedale, MS) in 1979. I remember the day exactly like it was yesterday. September 12, 1979. Saw pine trees flying by the window. 100 year old oaks layed down. Eye was STRANGE.

Well, I've posted this numerous times in other threads, but the NHC has been SPOT ON with their track since 5 a.m. this morning. Each position announcement was about 6 nm W of the forecast track. The 2 p.m. our time positoin was 7 nm west of forecast position from 4 a.m. our time this morning.
