New Orleans is once again under a tropical storm waring as Depression 5 continues to build in the Gulf. It is on a path to be hitting the Louisiana/Mississippi coastline sometime tomorrow.

Tropical Storm Bonnie Update

The staff at the recovery center implemented our full Hurricane Plan today in preparation for Bonnie's possible visit. The plan includes moving materials into secured space and backing up computer drives and as mundane as emptying the fridge so that it can be unplugged. It is still unknown exactly what Bonnie will do but the Recovery Center is as ready as it can be thanks to the efforts of all the staff. Let's hope it was just a drill and that Bonnie decides to fizzle.
