I've been watching coverage of this as well. It's unbelievable how huge this storm is...sustained winds of 175 mph. Sustained! Even watching the news now, meteorologists are saying that the conditions in the gulf are ripe for even more strengthening. If there are any TFPers in New Orleans, I wish you the best and hope those who can't make it out of the city get through this.
raveneye: I remember just a few months ago watching something on the Science Channel about the outcome of a Category 5 hitting New Orleans. Their prognosis wasn't good. I've never been through a hurricane before. I can't begin to imagine what it's like. Was this your first?
