Intensity now at landfall expected to be cat one-- a fun one not a pain in the window !!

What is so ironic is the myth about Katrina --she was not that bad a girl!! Cat 3 at landfall.

The Army Corp of engineers and corruption flooded New Orleans not Katrina!!

The Latest: Louisiana governor declares state of emergency

I saw the weather map for Gordon, yeah it's headed for New Orleans.

It's raining pretty hard outside right now, flooding in some areas, I'm just glad we're on higher ground in the city.

Right now I'm listening to "Sippiana Hericane" LP by Dr. John at Youtube.

Seems appropriate right now...

I was concerned about rapid intensification . Media is going overboard IMO

barely a cat 1 Is not a "major hurricane " (cat three is described that way

media does this often

I thought I would start a thread for Hurricane Gordon.

live feeds appreciated.

Looking for Jim Cantores location.

Be safe my friends.

Here’s where Jim Cantore, Weather Channel staff will be as Gordon approaches

And what about Jim Cantore? He was supposed to report live from Gulfport, but he was in Pascagoula around 6:30 p.m. Cantore said it’s possible the track of Gordon could shift east and become more of problem for Jackson County.

I haven't seen a drop of rain or a gust of wind today. I'm certainly not complaining! Although I did take my little boy for a bike ride, thinking we would have that pre-storm breeze that is the only good part of hurricanes. But nope. Just 93 degree hotness.

Gordon: Child killed after tree falls on Pensacola mobile home

Authorities have confirmed one child was killed after a tree fell on a mobile home in the 4000 block of West Bobe Street as strong winds and heavy rain from Tropical Storm Gordon swept through the Panhandle.

Resident Amanda Ray said there was a crack and a scream as the tree limb came down around 9 p.m. It was almost indecipherable from the howling winds, she said, but she realized soon after it was a person screaming.

"It was just awful," she said.

Glad to here this !

I was not complaining either! but there is an issue when they do this

calling all the nat emergency stuff is political but it is life threatening

people get hurricane fatigue and then dont evac when they really ought to

the saffir simpson scale was designed for a reason !

It gets viewers but it also is cry wolf -- their job is to keep the public informed

glad it is over for you guys

The child is a tragedy of course

40K without power

i am going to call that one that is gnawing at me off africa - the boogie man

the boogie man continues to grow

Florence? You're not the only one. She has me concerned. Our local weather man gave a 30% chance it won't turn away from the states.
