Nothing but rain and wind right now. We're just gonna wait for the all clear now and find some backroads to drive home on. The interstates will be a mess. Tried calling home and no answering machine came on so I guess power is still off. Some parts of Orleans Parish do have power though. At least I won't come home to nasty fridge this time.
