Isaac Taking Aim

It looks increasingly less likely that we're going to dodge Isaac. It could be a hurricane when it reaches our latitude Monday. If the current track holds, and the eye stays to our west, it will impact us more as the storm continues to draw power from the Gulf waters.

If we take even a glancing blow from this system, it could knock out power for days. Widespread power loss could also mean that water stops running too. This happened during your humble bog author's previous hurricane experience. No air conditioning was one thing. No flushing toilets was another.

I do not know that that's what would happen. But I will prepare for the possibility, and I hope you will too.
