Good thing at least that Katrina turned a little east and the eye apparently didn't give New Orleans a direct hit. Also was good news it was reduced to a category 4 from 5 this morning (and maybe further down to a 3 later?) But still very powerful and still causing some flooding and ruckus. Hope GeeBee and the other New Orleans folks are okay, as well as their homes and belongings.
For here today it is pretty hot and very humid. Feels awful. No rain here yet today but this evening it may come and the next few days will have a ton of Katrina related rain (but not to the point of much flooding concern, praise God). 88F, 31C right now in Philly.
