Hurricane Isaac Chronicle Day 2

Well, we made it through the night.  From the sounds of it, it really blew in about 12:30am.....spurts of hard winds and powerful rains.  We slept lightly....waking up as the winds got heavy.  We have a little debris in the yard from tree branches and such...but nothing real serious.  We woke up and were surpised we still had power-they were making us believe it was going to be knocked out in the middle of the night.  Sounds like the worst of it should be blown over by late this afternoon....with rain continuing into tomorrow.  The current track seems to be heading west, jutting nort, heading west, jutting north....with some concern that it just continues to stay over us and build strenght from the Gulf...instead of continuing north as orginally projected.  The worst of the flooding is all very south of us in Slidell, and New Orleans. 

Today we'll just be hanging out.  Probably make our living room a little workout area and pass some time with that, along with packing for our upcoming trip this weekend!! 

If you want to check out any of the local weather....here is a link to one of the channels. http://www.wdsu.com/weather

We have yet to find a meteorologist we enjoy to listen to.  Most stumble and do not have clear, concise thoughts.  Here is a link to our least favorite....if he didn't have visual aids behind him, I don't think we would know what he is talking about.  (He's been consistently like this....any time he explains anything we feel more confused then before we listened)  This is from one of the updates last night.  See how long you can listen to him!
