Off Lonesome Road. Sounded like it was to the North of Laurelwood sub.

In Meadowbrook in Mandeville...

Strong gusts but nothing really scary. Nothing sustained worth talking about. Rain hasn't really been an issue. I heard a couple of branches snap while under the back porch smoking a cigarette as well as a transformer blow but that's about it.

Lights have flickered but no loss of power what so ever.

Negative I'm hunkered down in BR. But I'm ready to get back to Covington ASAP if my folks need help.

Things much calmer in Mandeville now. Breezy with a little rain.

I'm a block off the lakefront in Mandeville...

Some rain, with the occasional gust. Nothing too crazy right now.

View from my patio to the Lakefront is still pretty cool, though.

Had some lights flicker in River Oaks, but still going strong for now.

Calmer than you'd expect. Definitely higher than normal though. (Duh)

Please keep us updated on the River Oaks situation. My folks and puppy and little brother live there. TIA

Also, how are those ponds looking? The river backing up any?
