i hate evacuation in most places traffic was horrible and i had to go to the restroom in a bottle so i wouldn't have to leave the highway and come back on 5 hours later. I think traffic is less bad one day before the storm. most people left.

This is the one time you get to go on the wrong side of the highway.

I live in Ohio and we occasionally get the leftovers...but I remember when Katrina was on the way I had a REALLY bad feeling.
I remember in '04 we got a LOT of rain courtesy of Ivan...flood warnings in my area.

My cousin was stuck there. His car broke down, right before it hit, so he was forced to go back home. He couldn't get to the GTFOing out of there like everyone else.

It's intresting to see the movement before the actual rash of evacuations commenced. at this point there was a calm almost buisnesslike approach to the evacuations. and the coverage was brilliant. your a shining example of what i aspire to be (meteorology)
