Maybe everything has gone off the rails in the last year because it's the culmination of the cluster that is his time in office.

The prescribed work attire of city employees with impending doom on the horizon is of the greatest importance.

That would be me. FWIW, the St. Tammany Parish School Board just tweeted that they are monitoring the situation but do not expect school closures next week.

The St. Tammany Parish School Board always likes to wait until you risk life and limb to get your kids to school, and then close an hour later.

This is from family member who is studying to become a meteorologist and plans to work for NASA or NOAA. He knows his storms.

As of 3:30 p.m.

Tropical Storm Nate Update:

Currently a very unorganized storm. The next 24 hours are extremely crucial for Nate. It will need to get more organized if it wants a shot at hurricane strength. Thinking we will have a better idea on the intensity by tomorrow evening.

Nate is apart of a very large gyre. Basically over central America there is a massive counter-clockwise circulation and around it there are many small vortices. Many of them are on the Pacific side and Nate is fighting with all of them for energy and struggling to organize.

The next 24 hours are crucial because Nate will start to pull away from them and that's it's opportunity to get a jump start before heading to the Gulf. There are a couple of other factors with this gyre and they are very complex making it tough to forecast short term solutions.

We just have to wait and see what Nate does once back over water.

Of course, only 2 of 10 pumps that would be used to pump out the city in the event of flooding are operational.

The other 100 pumps owned by the city are for water fountains and those are completely operational.

How hard is it to keep pumps operational? I don't get why they struggle so much with that. Are they old and outdated?

I've been thinking about PJ's comment for a day or two now. It's simply surreal to have a continuously whiff on weather events, and by such huge margins.

Harvey will go down as the most expensive natural disaster to hit the US in history, and PJ said it was no threat to the US.

The worst rainfall totals the Baton Rouge area has seen in recorded history, and PJ said it would be a non-event.

That's simply incredible folks.

Welp. Once it tightens up that much that's all she wrote.

Just have to hope it wobbles a little or never intensifies.
