Rick on boat in Mobile

I am certainly NOT on the boat...

I am at a friend's house inland 30 miles....I brought my Honda generator, loaded up my valuables on my truck...and got out of there 2-3 hours ago.

I am sure there will be some stubborn people who will not evacuate. We are north of I-10...and the rule of thumb is to evacuate if you are south of I-10....

many will not....

Ivan just missed us last year....It kicked right at the last minute...and we got 60 mile an hour winds....nuthing....

This one is on our west side....and that is not good..

I am seeing more of a northerly turn...ya'll.....!!!!

We could...and I repeat...we could take this on the chin....

If it hits New Orleans...it'll be the natural disaster of the century for the US....

If it hits Mobile.....ouch
