Sorry wolfman, but it ain’t no Hurricane yet!! It’s just another ‘big blow’ movin’ through Florida!
It’s not a hurricane, it’s a tropical storm. Biden withdrew from Tampa because he realized how childish it would look to campaign there during the GOP Convention, not because of the ‘hurricane’. Unfortunately, his withdrawal faked out the GOP and they decided to cancel the first day of their convention.
That forecast is going to probably even get better as the day goes on and the storm tracks more westward.
You are right, New Orleans is my guess at this point.
How did Mike Siedel of the Weather Channel legally travel to Cuba to cover this event. Isn’t there a federal ban on citizens traveling to that Communist state?
I am still stunned, all these years later, at how the Democrats and liberals in the MSM, through their biased coverage, politicized a hurricane.
I am still stunned, also, that the obvious shortcomings of Democrats Nagin and Blanco, in handling the disaster in New Orleans, were basicially ignored by the MSM and liberals and Democrats. Instead, everything was blamed on Bush.
Liberals were not persuaded by such legalisms, such as state governors having to formally request federal disaster aid and all that, when coping with natural disasters. Instead, liberals thought that Bush should have been in New Orleans from Day One, directing traffic.
Thankfully the media continues to lose influence. But they planted a powerful narrative that Bush was inept, which affected Bush for the remainder of his term.
My son goes to school in St Pete. They were planning to evacuate the school, but just called it off 30 minutes ago. They will get water and wind, but nothing bad.
One thing I have learned fomr this is that people at the NHC are being paid for nothing.
They can’t predict anything.
Bet the farm Jindal doesn’t cancel the school bus fleet in favor of a more appropriate form of bus line that never shows up.
Will the N.O. police shoot folks for walkng across bridges?
maybe they can evacuate with school buses and register them to vote at the same time. LOL
Dems may WISH they only had a huricane descending upon THEIR convention in Charlotte next week.
A combination of scheduled events during their convention has the earmarks of a “Perfect Storm” -
Stock up on popcorn. could be quite a show.

“ISAAC BLOWS SQUIRREL OUT OF PINE TREE IN ATLANTA”
—First responders alerted.
Hopefully it isn’t too strong. The rain coming right up the Mississippii looks awesome!
After all the rats and their “God sent the GOP a hurricane”, it’s going to hit NOLA. At least there’s a competent Republican in charge of LA. Maybe this time we’ll see true leadership and not obama-esque incompetence.
