Good call. That would certainly explain it.

Well shite. My brother texted during a slight break — said they were pretty busy with the addition of those who came from the other place.

Watching KPLC but they appear to be in a bunker and don't have any info anybody else doesn't have.



They're in Baton Rouge now. Not going to get much except phone call updates for local LC officials from them.

150 still. 7 mph short. Some evidence of stronger winds than that, but it'll be a post season upgrade after they fully review the data if it is upgraded.

This is someone’s home personal weather station near Lake Charles. You can follow what kind of winds they get and how much rain, at least until the power/internet goes down there.

Winds sustained at 52 mph gusting to 69 at Calcasieu Pass. The strong winds are creeping inland slowly but surely.
