My Humberto Diary (mvi_0220.avi by Brian A Kennedy)

 9:00 am

      We are expecting winds of 35mph with gusts up to 50 today. According to the radio report we will be
having 5-10 inches of rain. As you can see from the video, things are pretty quiet. I decided to take out
the roast to cook for dinner so I am planning on having the power on lng enough to cook it.

It is 7:55

Here in Central Louisiana it is wet, no wind yet ,I am now preparing for the event which is inevetable.  Hurricane Humberto!  Fresh memories of a tree landing on my porch a couple of years ago during Rita and making splinters of it goes through my mind, as I begin to get out the candles and other supplies that will  probably be needed later today.  So far it is drizzling I will be adding pictures and updates as this storm makes its way through. 

    In the event that the power goes out, I will complete my updates when the power is restored.  Is it possible to maintain power in a weaker storm like this one? We will soon find out.
