This will be one of the first big tests for the New Orleans levee system
since Katrina hit 15 years ago.

I'm wondering if the residents learned a lesson from Katrina and took swimming lessons

None of them went into roofing I bet.

storm surge will be lower than normal...........Luara could hit cat 2..........but is moving fast..........these are in no way like Katrina Rita and Ivan.............etc...............

We get thunderstorms with these winds at times.......lol......not often at 100mph though.........no big deal.

I'm just glad to finally see a hurricane with a good AMERICAN name again.

MAGA!

How did we get from Maria all the way around to Marco already ?

 

[the other mike]

Is it La ra or Low ra ?

Either way, she's expected to hit as a 3.

 

[BigDave]

Hurricane Laura will probably wind up being a bad hurricane that will cause a lot of damage

Latest update on Laura....N.O. looks to be in the clear ......Galveston and Houston keeping their fingers crossed.
