This shits getting real. 140mph at landfall. And on the anniversary of Katrina.
I don't know if we have any members in the path, but if we do, take care.

And then there is Nora running up the gulf of California. Maybe it will dump enough rain in the Colorado River basin to fill Lake Mead.

It looks like it may happen in a few days. I don't think I will see Lake Mead full again in my lifetime.

Lake Mead won't fill up until humans are removed from this planet.

As I sit out here in the west watching another Martian sunset, but watching the news of this latest threat to the Gulf and southern States, I hope all fare well with the approaching storm. I've been through a few floods out here too, and it's always a mess.
Our prayers are with you back there.

On a more serious note... that's one big storm. The colours represent windspeed in the online radar.

CME's, thought I would check to see the status, I sometimes follow this sort of stuff. The web site I use is:

On the storm front. Stay safe and those that need rain I hope you get it without severe adverse events accompanying it.
