The illustration above is from the US National Weather Service. It depicts the 2005 storm season, which was the worst in living memory. Below, is the result of Katrina. The time has come, the walrus said, to begin battening hatches, bringing in supplies, testing emergency equipment, and researching shelter and evacuation routes. Please withhold comments about last-minute-lin.

Lord willing and the creeks don't rise, the empress blogspot will return. If not, the Elysian Fields are said to be lovely this time of year.
May your gods be with you.
Stay safe and God Bless!
