While this is no Katrina, there will be significant impacts to some. I have relatives, friends and property on the Mississippi Gulf Coast so I'm keeping in touch with them through the night, and they will be checking on all the property when it is safe to do so during the light of day tomorrow. Anyone in the path, please be safe, hunker down and hang on. It's going to be a long night.

Another night. Got word this morning that my property was okay, but they are catching hell there right now with tornadoes all over the place so that could change. I haven't been able to reach my brother at all, or my property manager since this morning. My cousin managed to get a call out for about 20 seconds before her cell phone signal dropped and I could hear the fear in her voice. Plaquimines Parish in Louisiana is catching hell too; so far, 800 houses under water and they are contemplating blowing the levy to relieve the pressure where the Mississippi River and the Gulf water are meeting from opposite directions and topping the levy. Isaac, GO AWAY!
