Well, it seem Hurricane Katrina is looking to one-up Ivan from last year. On a nearly identical path, it’s set to run aground near New Orleans and plow right through Mississippi.

Of course, New Orleans has already started an evacuation, so that means I20 and maybe I55 will be packed all around Vicksburg and Jackson. And, of course, alot of people aren’t taking it seriously. I guess it’s a little of the “boy who cried wolf” after Ivan didn’t come, but with so much of Near Orleans below sea level, the storm surge alone is gonna do alot of damage. The wind & rain will do even more.

Guess I get to spend tonight cleaning out the rain gutters and preparing for the “week-o-rain”.
