    I put this on Solari subscriber group as well. If you can, please consider donating to Mercy Chefs which is a Christian group who come in after every American disaster and help to feed the survivors. Gary LeBlanc is already gearing up to move in as the storm there has now reached a point of unsurvivable storm surges and, always, not everyone flees the area. Even those who return will need his support. I can vouch for his sincere efforts (he helped us here after a storm in 2014 that devastated my town).

      Thursday P.M.

      Ann and I have been working our way towards Lake Charles all day after the CAT-4 Laura steamrolled through the Louisiana coastline. It’s hard to believe that Lake Charles is 30 MILES inland from where the hurricane first made landfall. The city has been decimated — power is out, water isn’t running and there’s been a raging fire at a chemical plant. The mayor of Lake Charles told the Weather Channel that this was a “catastrophic wind event,” and added:

      “I’m looking out my window and I see buildings in downtown Lake Charles that look like Swiss cheese. I see a TV tower that’s collapsed. I see literal entire facades of buildings that are blown off, not just windows. First floor of city hall, the entire first floor walls are basically just blown apart.”
