or prayers (if you are o inclined). Isaac seems to have slowed down and predictions now are we are in for rain and wind for 36 hours until Friday morning. It is 8:36 am here and winds are starting up,gusts expected to 80 mph.I have power now but expect it to go this afternoon as the bands hit. I hope Bill moved out of his waterside studio into his van...

I already have been myself.  stay safe, George (ITYRN!)! 

Stay safe, man.

The subject line said La.  I thought you meant Lower Atlanta .  Suffice to say many still have not fully recovered from Irene, so I'll definately be incline-ing to send up some prayers for ALL that will be in the impact areas.  36 hours of rain is definately NOT good.
 
Stay safe!

thank you Reece(ATIYRN)still posting while I have power...

Tip:  Stay ABOVE the water.

(And good luck!)

and others who responded, (those comments were not there when I replied to Beagle(time lag? forum software bad?)thank you all for your replies . I will post as long as I can and will return when power/time permits. It is ironic, this is the anniversary of Katrinas landfall.

Take a pad and pencil and write down some possible lyrics about the whole experience.  Helps keep your mind off of it plus something really good might come out of it!

I'm with you on this George......we're watching Isaac closely here in Orlando, but it's not as bad as the 80mph winds you're getting. Keep safe and keep posting.

Heh - the last year in my old house (on top of a ridge that looks East), we had so-called "East Winds" that exceeded 80mph...  This wasn't deemed to be anything out of the ordinary - laff!
