Re: Is Jeanne Strengthening...????

Just a few leftovers from Ivan here in Atlanta......

Still numerous roads under water but the flooding from the Chattahoochee is the thing that everything is talking about....Water was so high that it flooded out most of 6 Flags over Georgia, but they say they'll be open on Saturday, I dunno as what, a water park????

Death toll here in Georgia from Ivan stands at 4 including a 6 year old girl who was swept away by a flash flood in her front yard. They found her body stuck in a drain culvert this morning.

And trees are still falling all over the place. Had one big tree fall across a major throughfare near Emory University and our Fox affiliate.

And next door to me, a neighbor's very LARGE tree fell on his house, but he was alright. Although, when it came down I was awakened by a big whoosh and a shaking sound that shook me out of bed.

Big fear now is downstream of the 'Hooch with flooding and trees falling during a small gust of wind.

BTW, 6" of rain was recorded Thursday from Ivan here in Atlanta.

All those in favor of a nice boring weather week in the Southeast, say Aargh, Matey......
