Mississippi, post your conditions

#1 Postby HurryKane » Tue Jul 05, 2005 7:21 am

Cajungal, I hope you don't mind me taking a page out of your book. :)


In Diamondhead, it's 78 and cloudy. It's very still out and the birds are all a-twitter.

My grandparents, uncle and cousin live near Diamondhead. They live in Kiln, MS. Just over the MS/LA state line.

They live just to the northwest of us, then. How long have they lived there? Have they been through many storms there?

JMO, but I think MS is going to get more than LA gets!

They just moved there in October, I think. They lived in Long Beach before. They are not MS natives. They moved to MS because my uncle is stationed in the Navy Seabees. He got full custody of his daughter, so my grandparents moved there to help out with her. They moved to MS from Central Louisiana, they lived about 30 min south of Alexandria.

Cloudy? It's been pouring all morning in Picayune. (And guess who never got around to mowing this weekend?)

Yup, just cloudy. A little sprinkle here and there. But it's coming: http://www.srh.noaa.gov/radar/latest/DS ... klix.shtml

And I didn't mow, either. :/

Reporting live from the front beach in Biloxi near Edgewater mall... looking out my front window the tide looks about normal.... water has that typical hard flow to the west look whenever a TC is approaching, no real waves to speak off , yet .... some dark clouds out into the GOM on the horizon...

my two bassets are barking their heads off in the back yard, I guess they are formally announcing the TS warnings that are posted for the area.

Looks like Cindy could be another drill for what might be coming down the road with TD4.... hard to believe this is July....

I do like the horizontal rain - it looks neat!

Probably not as neat when there's cat 3 winds driving it, but TS is neat. :)
