Wind gust really pulsing now 20 miles NE of Eunice, LA. Almost 2" of rain so far today and it's really pouring now. I don't recall ever having this much rain ahead of a hurricane.

Wife, kids, mom, dad, in-laws, brothers, sisters, cousins, and friends all in a safe place. So no worries there. Generator is hooked up, just flip a breaker and pull the rope. Truck, tractor, and chainsaws all fueled up with lots of gas and diesel tanks filled. Ready for tomorrow morning. I will be cutting and pulling fallen trees to clear roads between here and oberlin, La.

Can't lie, I'm enjoying this.

I get pissed when people criticize the natural human curiosity element. It’s just normal. I don’t know if I’m disappointed right now or just relieved. I did wish it here over SW LA. Now that I posted this my neighborhood will get the only tornado. In all my years here I have yet to experience SUSTAINED hurricane force winds. Bad hurricanes at any one location are still rare events.

I guess it could occur in a classic squall.

To me, the “body” of the hurricane is beginning to move almost ENE while the center continues NNE. Is it possible that this thing decapitates itself soon? Or am I interpreting the IR satellite incorrectly?

Friend of mine who is a level headed retired anesthesiologist rode sally out in Gulf Shores. Their condo was rebuilt to new codes after Ivan. The grid is underground and they never lost power there! He said it was an interesting and awesome experience and one for the bucket list. At the same time he could not believe the destruction.

I was able to get my PWS webcam up for live streaming while the storm comes ashore. The camera is about 45 miles east of the projected landfall location.

Up to 2.09in of rain. Increased to 20mph sustained winds, 35mph gusts.
