Not so sure I even want to see more drone footage of SWLA tmrw. So many people feeling defeated over nothing
they have control over. NOLA news had displaced folks from there on the news today. They were begging for help. They just want to go home and there is nothing for them.. I'm glad no one was around because it got me big time.
Let's have some serious dialogue about an expedition to the area for volunteer work on our Sunday Nerd Circus.

Just got word that a friends elderly father is trapped under a tree in his yard right now or in his home. She was frantic so I’m not sure of the details. I think he lives in Watson or Denham. Say a prayer for him, it doesn’t sound good.

The wind is howling real good here in Ascension. I’ve heard two trees crash down around me in the past few minutes. Still have power but it’s blinking.

Looks like you're under the heavier part of that band that's now about to rotate up here into Central. Thanks for the heads up about what to expect. Stay safe man!

Still rainy and gusty over here near Baton Rouge, in Central. Whenever the rain picks up, so does the wind.

Right now we've got a good wind in back Brusly, but no rain at the moment.

NOLA folks let us know what this band headed our way is like. You will get it before the northshore.

It's been slow to rotate so once it's on us it might last a few hours
