The video from Pensacola is not pretty....I hope harpgirl can get close enough to effect the rescue....they are not letting people into some areas, and roads in Alabama are only marginally better.

And Jeanne is, for now, downgraded again...it may still pick up some steam and be a problem, but not likely with full Hurricane strength..

In the meantime, Ivan's leftovers are hitting us in Maryland and neighboring Virginia tonight....tornado and flood warnings everywhere..
