Last Three Isaac models don't look good.

That was quite a shift last night almost 100 miles

Seriously is seven years enough time between storms?

My concern is that with the river so low, will enough salt water be pushed up river to affect the water supply here in NOLA?

I'm doing my best not to go into full "We're all gonna die" mode.

That is the one that I am saying scares me. From my understanding it wont lose much strength while it is still over the coast. Then once it hits about Lake Charles it will make a right hand turn and head North.

So, You're saying it follows I-10 west and makes a hard right at intersection with U.S. Hwy 165 North?? I can stand a little rain!! Just don't need any "refugees", if you know what I mean. We are still trying to deport the left overs from Katrina!

The water already has some problems up to at least St. Charles Parish. I detected a strange aftertaste in water from 2 places - one on each side of the river - here in New Orleans yesterday. Today I heard that St. Charles had put out an alert saying the taste was in their water but was not anything harmful. They blamed it on the low river level.

Hell, I'm getting paid OT right now to drink coffee on my front porch! We sent our blast & paint crew in yesterday morning, I came in yesterday afternoon, the last couple of guys will be leaving our platform this afternoon.

Yup, that's pretty much what they discussed in the phone conference. Hopefully this next run of models will shed some light as to how far west it goes. If it goes west at all, my next set of work days are going to be long

I didn't think people actually drank the water in New Orleans?

Does anyone from South Louisiana remember what was happening here exactly 20 years ago today? I'll give you a clue...it was weather related.

Is it just me or have the forcasters gotten too smart???? It seams like this season they cannot predict like they use to.......... In the past they could look a few days out and they were usually pretty close........now with more predicitors out there the tracks are all over the place and no one wants to be wrong or on the opposite side everyone wants another Katrina for the headlines??????

Me also! We evacuated our construction and paint crew on Friday and us production guys came in yesterday. I hope to NOT have a repeat of Ivan, or Katrina, or Rita, or Ike.. etc.

Well I just made my Walmart/Gas Station runs.

Well I just made my Walmart/Gas Station runs.

Ditto. Filled up the cans, ran the gen and excercised it, filled the vehicles up, and bought some extra water just in case. Already have all the other stuff thankfully.
