I hope all MOC members are getting out of the way of Katrina. It has just reached Category 5 and the Mayor of New Orleans has just (10 min ago) just ordered a MANDATORY evacuation of the city. This will be a bad one. It is predicted to still be at Hurricane strength in central Mississippi and still be a major tropical storm when it hits Tennessee. I don't know how good a Monty is in that type of weather, but I don't believe I would try to ride this one out!

Sustained winds at 175 mph with gusts to 215 mph.
