For our friends who are having to deal with hurricane Katrina...

Stay safe. I heard this is going to maybe be the worst storm in USA history.
This is a good time to point weather widgets to New Orleans, or Biloxi and test out extreme weather conditions.

That's a good idea, about the weather widgets, but only if the sensors can hold up to those kinds of winds.

I've been tracking this one for a few days now, and it really does look like it will cause severe damage to a fairly large area, should it reach land [again].
Please stay safe, call your loved ones well before it hits and ask them to also stay safe. Bring all your pets indoors if possible, or at least try to get them out of harms way.
Keep a battery-powered radio handy, and listen to the authorities.
My sincere wishes that you all get through this unscathed.

Good luck, guys....
Last night I was watching some pretty ordinary 'Disaster Movie' about Earthquakes...called '10.5' or something....then next morning I hear about cities being evacuated....bit surreal, really....
