MSrobi911 is ok in Pascagoula

I just got off the phone with her and she's on the 4th floor of the courthouse there. They're experiencing 90mph winds with gusts up to 120. The bottom floor is flooded and they moved everybody up. I'll be talking to her again later today or tomorrow and will keep y'all informed.

Trying to call her cell now that I'm at lunch (couldn't get a call out at the hospital). But I'm getting a "All circuits are busy" recording.

Will keep trying...

Duckie - I hope you get a hold of Lindaloo!

I'm waiting to hear about my best friends parents who live in Pascagoula - both in their mid-90s...

I think it's gonna be a while before we get through. The recording has changed to "Due to the hurricane in the area you are calling, your call cannot be completed. Please try again later."

Lindaloo went to a special needs shelter there in Pascagoula. She checked on elevations and such and should be out of surges way. Hopefully she will check in with one of us ASAP. She has numbers with her.

We are presuming at this point that all is ok with her. We know she went to the shelter, but have not had communication from her today that I am aware of at this time.

Last I heard from her was 11PM here last night.

Haven't been able to reach a friend from Gulfport either. No idea if they evac'd or not.

She evac'd to Auburn and was here earlier today. Need to check with her this evening though.

I'll post any updates on the Severe Weather Check-in sticky.
