IDA

Talk about mixed messages! The Weather Channel says that Hurricane Ida is a small tight storm and it not going to amount to much. They say this as they run all the preparation notices on the bottom of the screen. They are seriously scared. Scared to make a prediction of any kind. They are also experts at scary reporting. They like to show past hurricane damage and predict dire events. Looks like it's going to be a lot of rain and some wind, but not a lot else. After all they didn't send Jim C. That's a sure thing that it's all gonna be OK. Local weather says lot of rain, 55 mph winds and seas 8 feet above normal. I check in with the local guys and then watch Weather Channel for more exciting if unrealistic updates. My favorite quote from the Weather Channel guy so far is "It's going to come in somewhere." Ya think??
