I just drove home along Hwy 90 from Gulfport to Pass Christian. The wind is blowing from the SE and is getting gusty. Plenty of standing rain water on the road along with some small tree branches. Just as I was walking in the front door I saw a flash of light and then a boom. I guess it was an electrical spark. Wonder how long the power will last......MGC

Weather here in Laurel, MS at 2:15 am, cloudy, light rain, wind at 7mph from the east. Not bad here yet, Laurel is about 150 miles from downtown New Orleans, so it will still be a bit before we get any heavy feeder bands.

I dozed off with the radio on but woke up to hear one of the WLOX newsdudes interviewing a lady about a tree that fell over. WLOX newsdude couldn't believe there were two cars underneath it so apparently it's a big tree (WLOX currently showing the national ABC news feed so I haven't seen it yet).

She was kind of giddy because she'd just moved her cars away from said tree and couldn't believe she'd slept through it falling.

We're getting slightly heavy rain again, good stiff breeze, and dhweather's weather station seems to have failed :(

things have certainly cranked up now at 5:01... looking at radar we appear to be in the north part of "eye" wall, if it had one.... tide looks about 3-4 ft above normal, but hard to tell its raining and blowing so hard outside right now... definitely TS conditions... center looks to be heading towards either Biloxi or OS.... no damage noted to date but a few small limbs down, this is by far the worst we've seen in Biloxi..
