Real though... I've been prepping for most of the day. Delta is/was forecast to hit me head on. Can someone show the latest guidance? The map that shows the official line?

Thanks.

I don't know how to post images but using this NHC interactive map you can zoom in.

The current track is parallel to hwy 165 about 10 miles east of Oberlin.

If anyone is wondering, there are pretty much ZERO hotel rooms in Alexandria. All power/cable/cell phone people. We are hotel number 5, finally got a room. At least the crews are ready to roll...

Alex doesn’t have that many to begin with so it’s got to be tough. Stay safe!

After a busy day, going to the Urgent Care with a brown recluse spider bite, lanced, packed and all, they put me on some gnarly pain meds though. After that went to fiance's band practice and a few other things. Jumped on here for a while and got caught up. I don't like that its moving nne and Lafayette is in the cross hairs now, I have loved ones just to the SE of Lafayette!

I also read on the snow posts. To everyone new here if Ndg says no snow for you then it means no snow for you and you can bank on it. I was hopeful for some snow a few years ago and it was close but Ndg said not so fast, lol

I'm still keeping Lake Charles and surrounding areas in my prayers! They've certainly been through enough already!

Holy Sheetsters! That sounds scary as hell. Glad you’re ok!!! Where did you get a brown recluse bite?

nolachic it was on the inner part of my upper leg. It's kinda funny but it's not, the last time I got bit by a brown recluse spider was somewhere along the way of evacuating for Kawitch!

I got hit on the top of my foot several years ago....but the worst part was the shots in the bottom of my foot.....looked like knitting needles.. I feel for you

If I owned Baskins & Robbins, I would feature a special at all stores in a storms path. It would be a double scoop for the price of a single, but it would be two different flavors of the largest in inventory. Since this would be the servers decision........why of course, it would be called ........................"The Cone of Uncertainity"

Getting ready to make that NNE turn. If indeed it stopped going west, then it got as far as 93.7. Rather calm yet sultry here in Algiers.

Bracing to ride it out here in Lafayette. We would appreciate all the positive thoughts and prayers anyone is willing to send. I discovered this board last year and the knowledge many of you have is impressive. I pretty much lurk because I am ignorant about most of this, but am trying to learn. Thank you to everyone for your input on this forum.

It appears the 4AM advisory shifted the track East about 6-12miles.
I traveled from the DFW area to Lake Charles by the way and decided to stay. I will be reporting on the conditions here and hopefully I will have little to report.
