Hurricane NewOrleans

#1 Postby Eyewall » Mon May 12, 2008 9:55 pm

Hello everyone my name is Simeon and I have been visitor on this board for many years but never became a member till today.Looking forward to this hurricane season I have a feeling things will be instering for the Gulf coast. I also want to mention I am from NewOrlenas so I have a good understanding of what it's like to go through a major hurricane. I live on the west bank side right near the Harvey canal and it does not take a major hurricane for it to come over.

Welcome to S2K! 8-) No offense but I sure hope your wrong in regards to an active TC year for the GOM; crude oil/gasoline prices are high enough already. :wink:

Welcome to S2K. I have a house in Marrero and lived there for 19 years. I am now on the MS gulf coast but my son and DIL live in my house in Marrero so have a big interest in GOM storms. I stayed here in Ocean Springs in my apartment on highway 90 so was way closer than I should have been to the Katrina action. Won't make that mistake ever again. :double:

I came back to a flat tire once after about a week parked in Cocodrie.



And I spent almost two weeks at the Holiday Inn in the French Quarter covering for a log analyst who took a week's vacation, then extended it almost a week for a death in the family.


Glad that was on someone else's tab.
