getting lots of rain here

canarymoon · 09-13-2007, 11:06 AM

Looks like you still have power.
Many to your west do not.

Stay SAFE, Rex!

There is 1 death in High Island, suspected tornado at landfall, man was crushed under a falling carport, lots of damage there.

canarymoon · 09-13-2007, 11:23 AM

A State of Emergency has been declaared for the ENTIRE state of Louisiana.

Sounds like Gov blanco isn't taking any chances this time.

Forgive me for not reporting in. Rosh Hashanah started last night, and I was busy with cooking and company. We had lots of wind last night, but not much rain.

Now for where I look totally stupid. Was Humberto the same as Invest 90? DH says what we got yesterday morning was the first band of Humberto, not a separate storm. I was too busy yesterday to watch how things developed, so I thought I'd visit my favorite meteorologists to find out.

canarymoon · 09-13-2007, 11:36 AM

Yes, MC -
This thing, incredibly, went from a rather questionable Invest (90L) to a strong Cat 1 (maybe even a weak 2) in under 15 hours!

What a Rosh Hashannah!
