   Hopefully it won't be too bad.  I've been watching it move east and it's been   
   bad in TX and now in Louisiana.  I'm in southern Alabama about 25 miles north   
   of the FL panhandle and we're in the severe zone for tomorrow during the   
   midday.   
      
   Stay safe!   
      
   Thanks!
