re: Francine - Landfall in Terrebonne Parish as CAT 2 100 mph

Those wildfires imo are the worst disasters you could face. Just a helpless feeling that only gives you maybe a couple hours notice.

1. Western Gulf of Mexico (AL91):
An area of low pressure located over the Bay of Campeche is
producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms. This disturbance
is forecast to drift slowly northward during the next several days
while it interacts with a frontal boundary. Environmental conditions
are forecast to become more conducive for development, and a
tropical depression is likely to form while the system moves
generally northward near or along the Gulf coast of Mexico and Texas
through the middle of next week. Interests along the western Gulf of
Mexico coast should closely monitor the progress of this system.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...60 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...80 percent

So no mention of Louisiana. ???

I'm cutting grass tomorrow and checking the oil in the generator. My biggest worry is getting stuck at the plant in a doublewide office.

HWRF finally bit

Tropical storm 998 mb at the state line

Update at 10 for others?

Next question .. where can I find expected rainfall totals? Hate to say it again but we just planted a sunflower field for a St. Jude fundraiser. They’re going to drown despite being on rows I afraid.
