Hello All ARES Members, please find below, La. situation report no. 3
IT looks like the storm is moving slower than we expected. It will take
longer to reach land fall. The bad thing it will have more time to
strengthen. I hope that does not happen. At this time there is a lot
of uncertainty. I appreciate the support all of you are giving on the
possibility this could become very serious!
A very positive thing we will gain even it turns out to remain just a
tropical storm, we will have assessed our parish preparedness. Thank
you. 73 JESSIE ADEC REGION 6
