    Heard it is supposed to track across central and north Alabama, and dump a lot of rain.

    Humidity........ Is the amount of atmospheric moisture..... Down south we have a wet or muggy heat (humidity) unlike up north that has a dry heat............. A few years back we (bout 10 people) loaded a large Ryder truck with flood relief supplies...... we were all soaking wet when finished........... The next day Three of us drove to Wever ,Iowa and we unloaded it, and never broke a sweat not one drop........ in one word HUMIDITY....... and we were bout the same temperature.........[?][?][?][?][?][?]

    Yea the big easy is totally surrounded by levees and is 6 feet below sea level.......... any heavy rain means trouble....... but they have pumps that you can drive a full size truck inside their intakes...... lots of water moves when they come on.....[:)]

    Hey Coonie!
    We are going to catch a lot of rain from it here. As Toolbabe said, thunder and rain already in this area. It is claimed to be the leading edge of the storm in your area. We are supposed to get the worst of it tomorrow night.
    Glad it missed you. Were you there for Camille? That was really BADDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD.[V]

    Well, first of all, thanks for all the rain! Got a new gun I can't shoot, due to the rotten weather![:(!]
    Secondly, I AM from south of the Red River, west of the Mississippi, and east of Texas. What does that tell ya, hmmmm?[}:)]
    Sometimes, ya just gotta live in the 'near north' to survive. Oh well. Sure do miss the fishing though. Bream don't taste the same out of these waters.[}:)]
