3:45 am Update
Katrina cut a path directly over my home, then took a little jig south before continuing west. The eye of storm emerged into the gulf about 30 minutes ago.
I woke about 3:00 am and took a look around. All seems to be well here. Lots of branches down, but none of them on my car. The wind is strong and steady. Rain is light.
Reports of 1.3 million without power, trees down and at least four deaths so far. Those who died were those who were foolish enough to be driving around in the middle of the storm. Some people lost their roofs.
I'm not out of it yet, the doppler shows we will get lots of rain over the next 12 hours. Too bad since, if the power is on, I am going to work in the morning. The market is open and so is my office.

Yes, be smart and stay indoors. And stay safe.
