Feel for you brother! I'm over in the Baton Rouge area. We are happy we are getting little from Sally, but I am really sorry for you guys.
Stay safe, prayers your way

I should be far enough to the east of the eye that I get mostly a lot of rain and a bit of wind... Hopefully my friends over in Biloxi area don't get it too bad.
Prayers for you all.
Woke up this morning and saw that Sally is moving at 2 MPH!!! I have never seen a tropical system move that slow. I hope that your area does not flood out!

Yeah, that's super slow... there was one in the 90's (Danny I think?) that did similar, and just sat in place for like a day at the mouth of the bay. It wasn't as strong as this one, but Sally has weakened a bit.
It's tracking more east now, so probably will come right up Mobile bay, which kinda stinks. On the positive side, it will hopefully weaken a bit but will still cause some problems.
I won't get flooded where I live, but there are plenty of areas in my country that most likely will get flooded. Also, the storm surge will be around 10-15' now, so areas along the Bay are at risk for flood...
Thanks for the thoughts and prayers guys!

Hey guys, my power is out since about 230 last night but otherwise good. Just a lot of limbs down in my yard. Still pretty windy here and it was a rough night. We saw wings probably up to around 60 mph where I am, and much higher too the South, probably 100mph or more
They're saying possibly 15-25 inches of rain in some areas
, so already a lot of localized flooding. I'll be checking on all my local peeps as soon as I can.
