It could have been much worse for our friends in SE LA. Thankfully Bill will continue to move away from the area at a pretty good speed. Now, we need a few weeks break, that was pretty intense!

I agree. While I am not minimizing what Bill has done, had he slowed down any... the results would have been much worse. :o

Colin, I believe most of the activity was out of Louisiana and Mississippi by 8:35 AM CT (9:35 AM ET).
