Moved my mother - 97 and in Lake Charles with severe cognitive issues among others - to another facility a bit east of the impact area. The city had only recently recovered from Rita. This will be much worse.

From all the reports that I've seen this could be a bad one.

Hopefully everyone in the line of direct impact has already made it out and those on the fringes are shuttered in and supplied well.

Thankfully most of my family from those parts have moved east over the last several years and are living around Baton Rouge these days.. they’re likely going to get pretty wet.. but should be safe from the worst of it..

Thoughts and prayers for those in the path of this thing.. it’s not looking to good right now..

Our deer lease is due north of Beaumont about 50 miles.. the guy that manages the lease lives about 15 miles north of beaumont...I exchanged a few text messages with him earlier tonight... he is legitimately worried about his home, the lease, and everything else within 100 miles any direction of him...

I watch the nightly news mainly for the weather forcasts.

At first it looked or was predicted to be a severe tropical storm; then it was updated to a class 1, maybe class 2 hurricane; then to a class 2, class 3 hurricane; now as it is about to hit land it will be a class 4, with a possibility of a class 5. WTH! This hurricane has grown into a monster! Bringing (estimated) 15 to 25 foot sea surge.

Not just the hurricane winds and rains of the immediate emminate forecasted path. It is predicted to spur tornadoes and a lot of damaging winds as it travels inland.

Although a mass amount of property loss and damage can be expected.

I hope everyone affected by hurricane Laura and the subsequent storms come through this physically safe.
