Hearing from my friends in NOLA, Landmass Coast (a/k/a Mississippi), Destin, and family in Mobile that they've lost power. DH handed me a margarita without being asked, I just said, "Thank you."

Really?  My Destin-based parents have not had any power losses. There might be some places right on the coast that lose power, but they're the same areas that flood out anytime anything more than a thunderstorm comes up.
I'm headed there tonight.

All my friends and family in BR lost power, but at least my sister has her's back. Thank God, bc I have a plane ticket to land on Saturday and I don't want to spend all weekend stuck in a hot house!  We didn't have power for 7days after Andrew and Katrina and my sister didn't have any for 10 after Gustav. Why do I pick Labor Day to visit? Dumb.

Because you had enough time to visit and you miss your sister? You're not dumb, the himacane odds just weren't in your favor this time  Hope you have a safe trip and your sister is okay.

Pretty much my whole family is there. I think they're fine. BR floods a bit, but no one in my family lives in flood prone homes. We'll see how bad it looks when I get there. Things were scary after Katrina, but it was a 2/3 when it hit BR.

Heck things were scary in MEMPHIS when the remnants of Katrina made it up there (before I moved to the promised land.) Tore the copper roof on the place I was house sitting in the Harbor Town neighborhood.
