Hey Greg...

Shawn,

Don't get yer hopes up on Bertha. She was a 'tease' if you know what I mean. Think about it. An eye came literally across this city and we got .03" of rainfall. Bah humbug. Maybe - JUST MAYBE - if the storms fire up again late tonight, we could be under a band. But with New Orleans' tropical luck, I'd expect the bands of training showers to fire off about 5 miles west of the city.

The remnants are definitely going to have to head WSW in order for you to see anything out of them. The center appears to be headng right for Alexandria at the moment (pop. 100k, 180 miles NW of New Orleans). But if you get what we got - and that was two nice days which were breezy and in the 80's, feel fortunate.

Steve
