I know huh. Then I couldn’t sleep wondering if we should plan to leave
Tough call to make. My friend lives uptown and although her neighborhood doesn't flood, she doesn't want to be trapped in.

Yeah kinda same here. But packing up a 2 yr, a Golden retriever, a dach & a cat is no easy task either!Tough call to make. My friend lives uptown and although her neighborhood doesn't flood, she doesn't want to be trapped in.

Yeah it is. For a Katrina, there is no question. But storms like this are so unpredictable.It’s such a pain. That’s why I didn’t move back to Nola!
Still waiting on word from my family there. I think my brother is going north.

Yes. It was Ivan. It’s why so many didn’t leave for Katrina. I sat in that traffic for 11 hours to go from Nola to BR. That was with contra flow. Contra flow has been around a while. Doesn’t seem to help much . Anyway, got our plan now so I feel ok. Will leave & go to friends house in BR if city tell us we should or have to go. Good news is they have a whole house generator so we will have power!Good luck to all in LA/MS. I remember the insane traffic mess the year before Katrina. I can't remember which hurricane it was for, maybe Ivan. Hubby worked in New Orleans, but we lived in Baton Rouge, It took him 9 1/2 hours to get home. Had no idea the interstates would be so dreadful. My mom drove from Houma to Baton Rouge, took about 4 hrs. If hubby had gone to Houma first, then BR, would've been quicker. I think it was after that, they started contra flow. Then the storm hit as a cat 1.....you never know....next year, Katrina did not hit as a 1. Definitely a pain to pack up pets, everything, and find good place to get to. Anyway, good luck w storm prep, and hope this one doesn't intensify,

Looks like Louisiana is gonna get spared
Now all of a sudden where my friends and parents live might get the worst of it (fl panhandle)
I'm still in shock over how much has changed in 2 days. Sending good vibes to you and your people!
Memories (bad!) of Harvey - good luck to your family and friends!Thanks, it wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't crawling slower than a snail.
One of my friends just texted me their backyard is already flooding. And this is the beginning of it
Yeah I don’t have it in me!All I could do was roll my eyes when I saw this foolishness. Not even going to pay attention.
