Tropical Storm Isaac

Tropical Storm Issac is spinning off the U.S. Gulf Coast. Current wind speeds are about 70 mph (just 4 miles under hurricane speed). Forecasters are estimating that it will make landfall as a class 1 hurricane late this evening, or early tomorrow morning somewhere west of New Orleans.



This is a very large slow moving storm and is expected to cause a lot of flooding as it comes ashore. At this time we do not know what the need for assistance will be, but we are planning to be ready to help if our assistance is needed. If you would be interested in working with us to assist those impacted by the storm, you can e-mail me at disaster_care@sbcglobal.net (please put Isaac in the subject line). I will update the blog as more information becomes available.
