Pixies CD ~ Katrina
 
Quote:
…..Katrina grew into a Category 5 hurricane on the five-step Saffir-Simpson scale by 7:05 a.m. EDT (1105 GMT), with winds of 160 mph (260 kph) capable of causing catastrophic damage. The storm was around 250 miles south-southeast of the mouth of the Mississippi River…..

Pixies does have members that are in the forecasted path of Katrina, but none that have requested to be included on our maps. They are on our minds and I hope we will be hearing from our members that will witness Kartina's passing.

The repatition of this past two years can understandably cause a degree of complacency for residences and obsrevers of these events, but it does not change the degree of danger and distruction that is present. I will be keeping these members in this area in mind and hoping all the people in the path remain safe.

Katrina
 
Thanks for the concern PF. The storm is about 100 miles west of us now and still heading northwest. We'll be on the fringe of it, but it is a huge one. It may just be the biggest to ever hit the usa.
I worry about the folks in New Orleans, like Wicked Wanda. Hope she is getting the hell out of there....

and cassiopeia, i think she's near n.o.

TY once again PF! I love how you love us all!

For all in her path...be safe and smart! My thoughts and best wishes to anyone of witness!

^^^PF makes me talk like that! I doubt I've ever actually vocalized such a statement. But the sentiment is real!

I'll join in the prayers for our Pixies and others in the path of the storm. Really doesn't sound good at all for N.O. and the other areas in the path.

I'll just ditto DB's thoughts... definitely.

Oh SHIT!!!
 
I’m trying to confirm radio reports that “the New Orleans levy system has collapsed".:yikes: If there can be a blessing with such an event, Katrina has slowed down to level 3 with ONLY 120 mph winds. :eek:

BigBear57 08-29-2005 10:40 AM

I just heard that only a portion of the levy broke and they're surprised that no more damage has been done .... there's still some hurricqane left though.. I'll keep gppd thoughts and prayers for those fine folks.

I just received a note from somebody near the Alabama border in the Florida panhandle.

........ the winds here are getting pretty rough. yesterday our town was full of travelers, it was really sad to see them because you knew they were running for their lives.

We just saw on the tv that like hundreds were on their roofs in LA wanting help....
Also, the Superdome where about 10,000 people are, the roof has started to leak.

It's scary stuff.


That sure IS scary stuff!! :eek:
I “heard” that the Superdome was having MAJOR problems with a full house of refugees. :yikes: Still looking for confirmations. :hair:

LMAO

I wonder how many family members HE has in there? :confused:

This is the most inclusive information I can find at the moment.

Safety to all our people! :hug:
I have to run now. :teleport:

Hope all our Pixie members are safe!!

While ‘relief’ is hardly the word, Katrina didn’t fulfill her complete potential, gratefully.

Anyone who has interest is aware of what Katrina HAS done and where. Being thankful must be very difficult for the people it has affected. I only hope our Pixies all are safe and with minimal aftermath to contend with.

Katrina being the monster she is, causes me concern for her future travels through people and places that are not as accustomed to hurricane personality as our Gulf, eastern seaboard and southeastern USA members may be. It looks like she is going to visit many of our members in one fashion or the other.

Those of you that do get to meet the windy lady, please keep us informed of the visit and I hope it’s a quick and quiet one.
