Hello all,
Here in Pascagoula, all is well. My house was a mile from Beach Blvd, yet the bayou from the Pascagoul River rose up and entered the property from the north side of me and then met the surge from the south at approx. Ingalls Ave. Which, for those not familiar, runs east and west thru town and is approx. 3/4 to 1 mile from the shoreline. The river did go above flood stage, which I read in an earlier post, because that is what took out the Police Station, the Sheriff's office, County Courthouse, the EOC building. It was truly amazing how the water rose and entered the city. Pinecrest, subdivision in the middle of town, Flood Zone "C", virtually took every house.
Appreciate the good wishes and prayers said over the last 45 days, all of the generosity of those that gave, and the labor of love of those that have took of their time off and pitched in to help reconstruct our city. Thank you.

Just got back from down in New Orleans last week. Have been busy since.

It was simply the most insane chase I've ever done. Had a blog running at http://www.UKWeatherworld.co.uk

Simply unreal...

Video trailer is up

#243 Postby HurricaneJim » Wed Nov 09, 2005 1:15 am

Have done up a video trailer to accompany the documentary and a photo book of the search and rescue people who went to everyone's aid.

Go to http://www.jwbartlett.com or http://www.ukweatherworld.co.uk

When it's all up and out there, portions of the proceeds will go to directly aid the first responders who lost everything and still kept on working.
