First drops of rain here in Biloxi, MS - Rain - 08-31-2008 Just went out to watch the dark black feeder bands coming across overhead and we now have some rainfall. Its big drops, but not a thick downpour yet. About to switch over my USB external drive to a firewire case (*to free up a USB port ) might have a short video clip Re: First drops of rain here in Biloxi, MS - decocritter - 08-31-2008 Are you staying? I am not hearing about what the folks in Miss. should be doing in terms of evacuation. Atlanta cycles the same reports over and over. Re: First drops of rain here in Biloxi, MS - Rain - 08-31-2008 Zones A and B were to evacuate. My folks and my sister's family are all here with us. They were the ones who lost everything in Katrina - so not gonna chance that again. They evacuated, but just came here to Biloxi. Its a steady downpour now.. thunder and lightening. Took two short vid clips on my Flip video thingy that came last week. figure out how to get em uploaded in a sec There is a shelter a mile up the road from me if things turn rough here at the house.

Holloway said this morning at 10:15, as the city endured wind gusts of 60 to 70 mph and a 10 to 12 feet tidal surge in some areas of the peninsula. The National Weather Service issued a tornado watch for Harrison County until 4 p.m.. The area continues to be under a hurricane warning and flash flood watch. Sporadic power outages also were reported. A citywide curfew remains in effect. More than a dozen streets, including most of U.S. 90 and Back Bay Boulevard, were impassible because of water. “We’re getting a lot of rain and gusts,” Holloway said. “People need to stay in until this gets by us, which could be later today.” Street closings in Biloxi due to flooding ---U.S. 90 ---First Street, north of Grand Casino. ---Howard Avenue at Pine ---South River Drive ---Brodie Road ---Destiny Plantation to the bridge ---End of Hickman River --Back Bay Boulevard, east of Boomtown Casino to Oak Street. ---Cedar Lake Road, north of I-10. |
