Once again the early forecasts said Hurricane Delta was headed straight to the New Orleans area. And could possibly grow to a Category 5. So once again, the New Orleans area started preparing for another disaster, possibly as bad as Hurricane Katrina.
But once again (for the third time this season) the projected path changed. This time moving more toward the Southwest Louisiana coast. Yes, the same area that was hit by Hurricane Laura six weeks ago.
We consider ourselves fortunate, of course, but our joy is stained with tears for those who will suffer again.
Even so, we're expecting lots of rain and some pretty strong wind gusts. We'll know more tomorrow just how much, if any, damage there is. I'm sure it will be minor compared to thousands of others in Delta's path.
