WEATHER WARNING - Tropical Storm Lee - Louisiana, Mississippi Declare States Of Emergency

NEW ORLEANS -- Tropical Storm Lee formed in the waters off Louisiana on Friday, threatening a drenching along much of the Gulf coast over the Labor Day weekend with up to 20 inches of rain in some spots.
Mississippi's governor declared a state of emergency in seven counties on or near the coast, saying the storm is expected to cause tremendous flooding. A state of emergency frees up resources that can be used to prepare for a storm, and Louisiana's governor declared one Thursday because of the threat of flash flooding. New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu also declared a state of emergency for the city on Friday.

It never ceases to amaze me, lame stream media covers the hurricane/tropical storm that went up the East coast 24/7. Now..... very little coverage of this tropical storm. Got to wonder why???? Wishing all of those being effected stay safe.

[MrGlasgowTruther4U]

@emya098 bp are probs paying them to keep the cameras away from that still affected area of the oil spill

It's the HAARP shit, the east will be done if people let the federal government organize 100% of recoveries. Just look what they did in Louisiana, they took away everyone's firearms and then gave them toxic trailers to sleep in, years later sending in these hurricanes when recovery is still happening.

@417polkadot - You get Fukushima Radiation and toxic Pacific Ocean water in which radioactive material was dumped. You'll get cancer & will die a slow agonizing death. Make you feel better now? The PTB has all the bases covered! They've screwed up the food chain, the air we breathe and the heartland's soil compliments of flooding and issues with Nuclear reactors within the USA that MSM is NOT reporting. The NWO is doing a great job fucking up our planet. They ALL need to be hanged or shot! Peace

[417polkadot]

Why does THE EAST COAST GET ALL THIS!! WHY NOT THE PACIFIC!

[417polkadot]

it wasn't that bad they were making a big deal it made 20 tornadoes but it was ok

@Shindler39 I remember, what a crime! I also remember Hurricane Erin. Right off the East coast on 9/11/01. Hurricane Katia seems to be following this same path. 10 years later???? Seems a little too coincidental to me. But then, I don't believe in coincidences. We will just have to wait & see what happens.

[seth5220]

Peace goes to all New Englanders who are still suffering to Irene and to everyone in the Gulf Coast brace yourselves

@Shindler39

Let us review, shall we? Mr. Nungesser says right here in this video that they got the $ SIX YEARS AGO. The Democrats held both Houses of Congress&Saint Obama's was the President for TWO FULL YEARS. That means they could have done ANYTHING. They could have focused on building the Levees, building houses for those hurt by Katrina, spent Federal $ to move people to better living places. But NO, Reid/Pelosi/Obama IGNORED you all and now you can blame THEM. Look in the mirror& LIE LIE

[btwall60]

@MrGlasgowTruther4U

Just listen to what Nungesser says, that tells it all. I made a post on this site yesterday explaining everything. He says it's been 6 yrs since they got the $ and the levees have not been built. Who has been the President for the last 3 yrs? The Blameless Man Owebummer. And this is another reason why the "Poll" #'s for Obama "personally" are always Good. Because the media never blames him for anything that happens, yet Bush was blamed personally for every little thing.
