Hopefully, this one is nowhere close to Camille!  I think Ivan has weakened 
some on his
way in.  All the same, I wish those closer to the coast all the luck and 
grace in the
world.  Here in Jackson we just expect traffic and rain.

Camille, from what I recall, had winds that were 230+ mph at landfall and  
she was
still a category 3 storm when she got 78 miles inland to Hattiesburg.  Quite 
a devastating storm.

Good luck and God speed!

Frank

I hope you have your water-wings Jeffery! This looks to have some
Camile-esque tendancies that are distrubing. I missed Camile but when
PARCHE was in new construction at Ingals in Pascagoula there were
water-lines on the building - ABOVE THE SECOND FLOOR WINDOWS - that
maked the extent of flooding. And if you needed to kill an afternoon
you just had to ask one of the yard-workers what they were doing when
Camile hit. Everyone had a story. Some of them might even have been
true!

With New Orleans being so low and with the eye's pressure being so low
as well, well I hope it misses a high tide.

I remember that Camile laid waste to things well inland with tornados galore.

I hope we miss those too!

Good luck to all in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia. I
have this terrible feeling your gonna need it.

Adam
