Hurricane Predictions . . . .

We were coming through Pensacola after Michael and at a light near the Fair Grounds, a cop stepped out into the street and stopped traffic. We sat there for a while watching the trucks head out to their next job. Must have been 35-40 trucks before the cops left everyone return to normal traffic.

At the refinery where I worked, the grid coming in was trashed. Heck, everything was trashed but that's beside the point, when they were restoring the substation that takes it's commercial cut, there was a whole ARMY there. Imagine the sight, there were lifts like herons around a pod of minnows at the station, and along the feeders for 1/3 mile. No telling how many people. Those power guys are the heroes. My bud just got his power back yesterday after Milton. And so it goes.

Before and after Ida moving over 9 days among temporary shelter in Gulfport, Saucier, Oceans Springs, and Jackson,
I did see the fleets mustering and filling the parking lot right off I-10m in Gulfport. And the convoys on I-10. Agreed, these people are amazing. And seeing trucks from Tennessee and Indiana power companies. Given a disaster in any one state I'm sure there is help from power companies and first responders form many states.
One wouldn't expect the Cajun Navy in the Appalachian Mountains.

I saw power trucks mustering here, getting ready to head south for this one.
