Where I live they tend to move southwest to northeast, but they are not tropical in nature

For people worried about river flooding who aren't aware of their elevation, I find this site to be accurate enough to give you an idea.

I got a little concerned about 15 minutes ago because I went out to my garage and the wind looked like it was blowing to the south, I'm on the east/northeast side of the storm right now and expected it to be blowing the opposite direction.

Depending on where you are, Cypress Creek is supposed to crest at Wakefield Wednesday morning @ 9AM. If you haven't flooded by then, you should be safe. Roughly another 2 feet of rise to go.

The dry air the storm sucked in today is paying off. The low clouds over Lafayette tonight are hauling arse, but the air outside is cool and dry. The moon was out a little while ago. Last night, it was hot, still and muggy. The breeze tonight is rather pleasant.
But, that bastard being back out over the gulf worries me.

How far away from Methodist were you? What is the status of the hospital as far accessibility/flooding?
Didn't go any father south past Cypresswood on 249...it may be OK..I cant say for certain. St Luke's in Vintage Park was evacuated.
I think most the area of 1960 east of 249 is OK.
ETA. Not 45, 249 sorry.

I am in a similar position. When the rain was really heavy Sat night and last night it got close for me but it has been steadily draining today, and I don't live close to any river/bayou. Trying not to get too optimistic though. I am certainly much luckier than most in the city.
