Ark-La-Tex Virtual Tours Meets Hurricane Gustav

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Ark-La-Tex Virtual Media

Ark-La-Tex Virtual Tours is pleased to announce that we have weathered Hurricane Gustav with minimal impact.  Earlier this week Gustav roared ashore in south Louisiana causing much distruction.  According to forcasts, Gustav was on track to deliver a harsh blow to the Ark-La-Tex.  Once inland, however, Gustav shifted its path just enough to spare the Ark-La-Tex all but the rain and a brief period of high winds.  Others were not so fortunate and our prayers are with them as they begin a long peiod of cleaning up.

At Ark-La-Tex Virtual Tours a lot of rescheduling went on this week, but next week looks to be right back on track.  Below is a picture from my camera phone of the clouds of Gustav as they began to enter the Shreveport area.

Gary and Rebecca,

In Baton Rouge we got one of the hardest hits.  No powe anywhere!  Now we are about 60+% back up with power.  I posted some photos Baton Rouge Area Homes blog and will be posting more as recovery proceeds this week.  Sounds like you guys were up quickly!

Ann,

I am glad to hear that you are back up and running and I hope that the rest of the area is restored soon.  Like your grandson, I have asthma, so I understand how critical having air conditioning can be, especially with the high humidity.  You we fortunate to get a generator! 

We were originally forecast to receive the rains here that you got there.  Of course we are much further inland, but they were still saying winds 35-50mph and up to 20 inches of rain.  Fortunately, the inland track of the storm shifted and we escaped the worst of it.  Our thoughts continue to be with those still recovering.

Loved your pictures!  Thanks for sharing them and best wishes!
