He is starting to eat some dry air though so hopefully it cycles through ans slowly begins to weaken him. It's going to be slow but you can see it slowly moving toward him. This sucks so bad. All of my family that stayed is freaking out and while it's part of my job to keep people calm, when it's your family it's a lot tougher.
Just lost power in Metairie. I'm posting from my phone. It is getting really bad...we have to be getting hurricane force gusts. I'm tired of this already.
I tried to warn my family that this was not going to be an easy night. Just got a text back from them, they have not been able to sleep all night. Nola has at least another 12 hrs of this if not longer. Let me check what the 06z gfs has to say.

I'm sorry Kory. Stay positive and just remember that in a few days this is over and we all begin to recover. This is only temporary.
I stayed because my mother in law has pretty severe dementia. Never again. Taking the kids and dogs and getting the f out. Thought we would get a break when the eye passed over, but it looks like its gonna be south of us. Wish the sun would come out at least.
