Hurricane Ida

[river-rat]

 

I've got everything put away and tied down. Now it's just a matter of waiting for Ida to arrive some time tomorrow. Everyone in it's path please be safe.

@riverrat Y'all stay safe!

 

Praying for y'all ?

I’m tied up at the dock right now in Nuevo Vallarta as hurricane Nora is coming through should be hitting the peak here in a couple hours I have an arm in a sling making me feel worthless but my trusty deckhand is managing to take up my slack  so far all the ropes are holding and nothing is blowing away. Power is out all over so my wife’s at home with no power i’ll run the generator on the boat so I’ll have power but I’ll be outside most of the night in the weather taking care of the boat I captain and doing what little I can to help  others. Good thing Nora is a small hurricane compared to what the guys in Louisiana are going to have to go through everybody stay safe.

Stay safe guys! I don't know what is worse, have days notice to prepare and worry like you guys do, or a 30 minutes notice to get out of the path of a tornado.

Yes. All stay safe, and best of luck to all of you dealing with this storm.

Ida is currently doing what hurricanes do, slowing and building energy from the Gulf.  

She's going to make landfall at Cat 4 guys.

Just saw some video of Ida, doesn't look good. Hunker down, praying all you folks will be safe and not incur to much damage.

@Catt I was down Monroe, LA earlier today, helps on the way. I lost count of the power company truck either staging or heading south. Good luck every body, still praying for you.

Assessing the damage this morning. Limbs and trash everywhere. Looks like we lost a few shingles and some siding is showing a little damage. We have been on generator power since about 7:00 PM yesterday so at least we have lights and A/C. Cell phone service is down in my area right now.

 

My son lives in New Orleans and we can't get in touch with him since we have no cell phone service. Last we heard he was doing okay. Just have to pray that everything is okay with him.

 

About to head out to my church to see if anyone is requesting help. Overall we're blessed that it wasn't any worse than it was.
