Now they are saying that Hurricane Gustav is heading YOUR way! RUN!
Gustav is supposed to be more powerful than Fay was!
At least we in Georgia finally got a little bit of drought relief from Fay with all the rain.....but still got a few tornados! Nothing like Florida though.
Stay safe Ernie!

: there is a positive to all this. Its gonna
: boost the economy when everyone buys
: materials, but whos to say the economy needs
: help, the way gas prices are, I remember

: couldnt afford gas to leave town, and of
: course gas station owners know people are

: I was so sorry to hear on the radio a while
: ago, that Florida has had 11 fatalities as
: the result of Fay. The flooding has damaged
: a lot of property as well. The latest
: fatality was an electrical worker responding
: to a power outage call. My thoughts and

: I knew cdlynn was really getting hit hard by
: Fay and then I couldn't remember what part
: of Florida Doc was from....
:
: poor cdlynn is getting schwacked! (if
: that's a word, perhaps snockered)
:
: I'm in the extreme NW part of the FL
: panhandle, right where Fay is expected to
: pass over on Saturday afternoon/evening.
: Fortunately, the winds should be less than
: 39 mph by then, but there will still be a
: good amount of rain. I'm hoping that the
: storm will speed up a bit and just fly thru
: here so we don't get any flooding!
:
: Everyone is so flippant about it, after Ivan
: and Dennis (not to mention prior
: hurricanes), but you just can't be too
: complacent. Fay may not be a hurricane, but
: she's sure doing a number over on the
: Atlantic coast of FL! Eternal vigilence.
: Learned that from Zeke. although he worded
: it differently...
:
: keep your heads down y'all!
