No, I have too look after my grandma here. She is too sick to go anywhere. My mother is a nurse and is currently in Cali working. Luckily for that because the hospital here is shut down and could very well be gone too. If we lose our house she will go to work there full-time and I'll have to move and start school again the following semester I suppose.

Where I live it won't flood. I live far enough away from water and above sea level. I'll get a lot of rain and a lot of wind, but it won't flood. However I have large 100ft pine trees surround my house so one may come through my roof and/or land on my truck. The wind may also blow my roof off, but I pray it won't.

I'm in better shape than the people on the south side of Lake Ponchatrain which is the large lake north of New Orleans. The south side of the lake is below sea level and the cities sit in a bowl because of the levees.

Preparing for the worst!!! Hoping for the best.

Good luck to everyone in the same boat as me! Will take pictures.
