The wind is noticeably less fierce now. It’s still honking. But now it lacks that same destructive fury. I’m no longer afraid of the wind.
I took a brief walk around the neighborhood. I ran into a dozen or so people out walking dogs and generally looking around. The damage is, so far, minimal as compared to the aftermath of Katrina, an aftermath that I saw a full two weeks after landfall. There are a few big trees uprooted and lots of limbs down.There’s a levee in Braithwaite, in lower Plaquemines Parish, that is over-topped and now breaching. This news comes to me through the radio plugged into my ears. Next time I’ll have a regular battery powered AM/FM radio instead of relying on this earphone deal.
