In Louisiana, Gov. Bobby Jindal declared a statewide emergency, and two communities in the western part of the state, Vermilion Parish and Cameron Parish, asked thousands of residents to evacuate low-lying coastal areas that are prone to flooding. The storm was expected to hit Tuesday morning anywhere from western Louisiana to Port O'Connor, Texas.
Tropical Storm Gaining Speed in Gulf By JUAN A. LOZANO, AP For vacationers, the timing of the storm couldn't be worse: The Texas coast banks on tourism at this time of year, with much of the state baking in 100-degree weather. The storm also comes in the wake of Hurricane Dolly, which took aim at the resort community of South Padre Island on July 23.

Yes, Gulf Coast People always personify their natural disasters. Let's see if we can be the first to make Edouardo a racist issue... first right here on MooPig Wisdom:
"Hey, Edouardo, you little Bitch!!" we might say. "Or there she comes!" --or-- "What kind of name is Edouardo; can I call you Ed?"

Connie Porter, owner of Avenue O Bed and Breakfast in Galveston, said she planned to watch the progression of the storm on Monday, but she wasn't worried about it. She said a storm like the one being described might mean some debris and that people should take care of patio furniture, but she didn't anticipate much more.
"It's not going to be a huge issue for anybody in this area," Porter said.
What's the money on: Galveston becomes a modern Atlantis? or she is correct "No damages, just a little patio furniture?""It's not going to be a huge issue for anybody in this area," Porter said.
