We need a break here. Jimbo is about at his breaking point. He's worked non-stop for the past 9 days. Right now, they are in the process of getting the people in the Special Needs Shelter back to their homes. AND, it looks like Ike is dead on target to hit the coast of LA somewhere.
*If* they get all these people back home today and get the shelter closed (some of the people don't want to go home because they're afraid they will have to turn around and come right back) by tomorrow, then Ike comes into the Gulf, they will turn around and do it all over again.
What about those people that just went back home? Are they going to have the money to evacuate a second time in less than two weeks?
Ike has the potential to be a very bad storm. He needs to just go away.
frazzled on the home front
