It keeps wiping us with its winds and rains - storm surge up (not like Katrina but lasting a whole lot longer).

My house is safe, a few minor issues to deal with when this thing is gone. I'm blessed, nothing major to worry about and much better than it was 7 years ago.

Thank you for the good wishes.

One man's trash is another man's treasure.
Much of the state of Alabama has been in a drought.
I know the rain will be welcome farther north.

I'm on the edge of outer bands east of Mobile.
It's been pretty much a non event here.
Drove down to Gulf Shores today.
Just high winds and surf.
Looking forward to a nice Labor Day week end.

Haven't seen you around for a while...was wondering how you were doing with Isaac.

Hope things are going well in your life!

It hasn't stopped here for the last 24 hours. One of the feeder bands is virtually stationary over us and we have a new tornado warning every 30 minutes. The rain in this storm is as bad as any storm I've ever seen. I never thought I'd see such a relentless category 1 storm.
