Hurricane Ivan Pt. 2

Three tornados have spun up in Panama City, killing two people.

Mobile begins its curfew in about 10 minutes. They'll bust the violators, but just issue them court dates, as they can't take them to jail at this time.

Eye of the Storm doesn't think it'll hit New Orleans, thank goodness. Mobile is looking like the spot, and Florida is on the worst side of the storm.

They just said on the news that Jeanne looks like it's going to hit Fort Lauderdale on Monday. LOL. One thing at a time, y'all. I don't think it's true, anyways.

Here's a link to Pensacola coverage of Ivan. Two more people have died, these in Louisiana. The traffic jam during the evacuation was too much for two sick and elderly evacuees.

Congrats to Robin of Beyond Salvage for his hurricane blogging Instalanche. Sorry about the circumstances.
BTW, Robin's also worth reading when there's no storm.

Teresa Kerry's now an expert on hurricane relief. Talking to volunteers packing supplies bound for the Caribbean, she somehow managed to come off sounding like an empress with her "Let them go naked" line. More and more she's reminding me of Karen on Will and Grace. I'd be worried meeting Teresa- she might pelt me with tic-tacs.

This NBC station in Mobile/Pensacola has live streaming coverage, but it won't work with Mozilla.
