The Winds Are Arriving
| It is 11:22 am and the winds are picking up here. Gustav is just below us and the east side has weakened. We are going to Vicksburg Mississippi and we will be leaving soon. I think I heard a sea gull outside. The sky is getting creepy. We will be taking back roads up to Mississippi and the traffic is moving. The are saying that anyone who stays is "on their own." There will be no resources available for south central and southeast Louisiana. They are calling this the perfect storm. I still don't know if I believe it. I do however believe that the West Bank and Houma will have significant flooding and devastation. The whole state is much better prepared for this storm. I am happy to see all the preparations and emergency agencies in place. I have to get back to packing. More to come... Estée |
