Yeah Yeah Yeah....they gettin us all hyped up down here for ANOTHER ****, :roll: but this one looks like it will actually hit our ****....I hope it does personally. School already stressin me out, and I need to take a lil vacation so hopefully my black **** will be evacuating ASAP. I know its suppose to hit ATL, and New Orleans also....so all yall at schools in the AUC and at Xavier, be safe, and be prepared.
Well New Orleans made it without any damage from Ivan, so we're blessed for that. My prayers go out to anyone who has lost a loved one or suffered any other losses due to this ****.
They made us evacuate the dorms and it took us 7 HOURS to get to Baton Rouge. Now if you've ever been to New Orleans, you'd know that is normally an hour drive. Traffic was crazy, but I'm glad everyone was okay. XU was out from Tuesday thru Friday and though many people see these days as a vacation, we have to make them up. I dunno about the rest of ya'll but my teachers aren't playin. I STILL have a test on Monday and a paper due on Tuesday, along with another test on Tuesday. :x
I was just watching the news and starting crying because a toddler lose his/her life because of Ivan. :cry: This ain't even cool. I like the idea of missing class, but, I don't want a storm to happen just to get out of school. It makes you think when you hear about people dying because you wanted a **** to come through so you could miss class. That's not cool. I don't know how people die in hurricanes and don't want to know. All I know is the **** hit the mountains hard in my state(NC). It devastating, and I just pray Jeanna goes away, because the only person that can make it go away is God.
Well, well, well.... look who is back :twisted:
Ivan Remnants Swirl Toward Texas Coast

HIGH ISLAND, Texas - Making an encore appearance in the Gulf of Mexico as a tropical storm, Ivan swirled toward the Texas coast Thursday with a potential for up to 10 inches of rain over the weekend.

Florida residents also had that oh-no-not-again feeling as 105-mph **** Jeanne appeared to be zeroing in this weekend for what would be the state's fourth thrashing this season.
"We've just reached some level of normalcy and here it comes again. I've never seen anything like this," said an exasperated Margaret McFarlane of Greenacres, Fla., who was without power for 12 days after **** Frances. She was already stocking up on water, food and other supplies in preparation for Jeanne.
In all, four tropical weather systems were churning Thursday, with the most immediate threat coming from the 22-day-old Ivan, which will not seem to go away after causing 70 deaths in the Caribbean and 60 more when it plowed into the Gulf Coast and through the South last week.
**** Ivan broke up after hitting the United States, but a piece of it spun back and reformed in the Gulf of Mexico as a 60-mph tropical storm that was lashing Louisiana with thunderstorms Thursday. It was expected to come ashore late at night near Galveston, Texas.
Ivan was expected to make a button-hook turn and sit over Houston and the rest of southeastern Texas through the weekend, bringing 4 to 10 inches of rain and the threat of flooding.
"Friday night through Saturday morning, if you run a line through Galveston, Houston and College Station, that area probably is really going to get pounded," said National Weather Service (news - web sites) meteorologist Kent Prochazka.
The last time the Houston area saw a tropical storm was June 2001, when Allison hit and then looped back, dropping 36 inches of rain, killing 22 people and paralyzing the nation's fourth-largest city.
By midday Thursday, Ivan had already kicked up seas several feet, forcing some offshore **** and gas crews in the Gulf of Mexico to evacuate.
Florida was on edge over **** Jeanne, which has already been blamed for 1,070 flooding deaths in Haiti.
At 2 p.m. EDT, Jeanne was about 440 miles east of Great Abaco Island in the Bahamas. It was moving west near 6 mph, a speed that would bring it near Florida by Sunday. Some projections showed the storm hitting central Florida and then moving up the coast to North Carolina by Tuesday.
"It's time for Floridians to seriously pay attention," said Eric Blake, a meteorologist at the **** center.
"We've already refilled our refrigerators, gotten the debris out of the streets and it's going to happen all over again," McFarlane said as she secured her Greenacres home. "I'm not sure how much more people can take. And some people lost their homes, or part of their homes. The rain is really going to cause some damage the second time around."
Meanwhile, 120-mph **** Karl stayed on an open-ocean course that threatened only ships, while Tropical Storm Lisa moved slowly far out in the Atlantic.
The **** season ends Nov. 30.
