I just got word from a friend that things are looking fairly good. The storm is weakening. I think NOLA should weather it fairly well.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

I hope all are safe that are in the path of this storm, but I hope we get the 3-5 inches of rain they're saying we may get on Sunday/Monday when it gets to NW Ohio.

Talked to my grandmother last night, and they're hunkered down OK right now.  Other family are posting updates on Facebook, so they've still got power / internet for now.

Here's a great satellite photo of Issac from yesterday that I just came across...

... and here's a more recent photo:

I'm reading that Issac is dumping more rain than Katrina  :o
