3. Thanks Swamp Rat

We'll be fine. We're as ready as we can be and at worst we're expecting a Cat1. All our shelters are ready for those who need to move. Some people are angry at the level of preparations for a Tropical Storm or maximum a Cat1, but I guess it's better to be safe than sorry and our ODPEM don't joke out storms.

We'll probably get a day off on Monday :D I'm way more worried for the people of the Gulf coast and hoping that history is on NOLA's side.
