Key Messages:

1. There is a danger of life-threatening storm surge inundation 
Sunday along the coasts of Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama  
within the Storm Surge Warning area. Extremely life-threatening 
inundation of 9 feet or greater above ground level is possible 
somewhere within the area from Morgan City, Louisiana, to the coast 
of Mississippi. Overtopping of local levees outside of the Hurricane 
and Storm Damage Risk Reduction System is possible where local 
inundation values may be higher. Interests throughout the warning 
area should follow any advice given by local officials.

2. Ida is expected to be an extremely dangerous major hurricane when
it reaches the coast of Louisiana. Hurricane-force winds are
expected Sunday in portions of the Hurricane Warning area along the
Louisiana coast, including metropolitan New Orleans, with
potentially catastrophic wind damage possible where the core of Ida
moves onshore. Actions to protect life and property should be rushed
to completion in the warning area.

3. Damaging winds, especially in gusts, will spread inland near the
track of the center of Ida across portions of southeastern Louisiana
and southwestern Mississippi Sunday night and early Monday. These
winds will likely lead to widespread tree damage and power outages.

One of the reasons I would have left 2 days ago, everything about this storm, since jumpstreet has been ominous. In Texas, becuase of Rita, all lanes would have been outbound. 

I lived on the coast for 5 years, so get why it's hard to just pack up and.leave, but this storm? Shit. People need to have a hard list of what's really important to take and what you can leave behind. Every decision delays, that's why living in hurricane country, you need lists of yes and nos and get the fuck out. Also, being married really slows down the evacuation process.  I found being single shaved about 12 hours off my evac time.
