Also, a 500+ foot freighter, hauling crude petroleum, is dead in the water,

hurricane and had engine failure. * Coast Guard attempted a rescue of the 28

This may be another major weather disaster in the making. *Hope not, but it

"Certain death" is the warning from the weather service.. I hope not,
some reports have half the population not taking advantage to
evacuate. I saw the report this morning about the ship, 22 crew on
board, no navigation at all. I wonder how direct of a hit it is going
to take, anyone seen a map?
