Well, it never really got very bad for us. It apparently turned and went in a more easterly direction. We are in the northwest corner. We some wind gusts and much needed rain. My folks on the other hand are without power. It seems a transformer blew up and completely melted. Their whole town is without power! My brother got called to be back in New Iberia. With all of the road closers, I don't know how he will accomplish that. He works way down in Intracoastal City on an oil rig. They may not have a rig left. I am very worried about Marly. They were gonna tough it out in their travel trailor at their camp in Lafayette.

Alee, from what I can find online, Lafayette had some storm damage, but I did not find any news of anything major. There may have been some places that lost power because there were picture of guys repairing lines that had tree branches on them. That's all I could find out for now!

Well Gustav has made it to the Midwest. Here, just southwest of Chicago, it is raining like crazy. By midnight they say we should have about 6"s in all. We needed the rain, but this is a bit much. Guess I can't complain too much, we aren't getting any damaging winds with it.
