Sept 13 - Hurricane IKE Update

AVAILABILITY
FL 04 - AVAILABLE
FL 05 - Pre Alert to the Gulf Coast - on stand-by for Texas
FL 06 - AVAILABLE
FL 07 - HURRICANE GUSTAV SUPPORT - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

**HURRICANE UPDATE**

Ike made land fall last night. Galveston and Port Arthur are being hit very hard. The storm surge is well above the flood stage. It is too soon to send in rescue personnel.

FEMA will be placing another support camp in the Houston / Galveston area, we are on stand-by for this camp. Basically just waiting for a location to build.

We left Baton Rouge before the wind and rain started. We are safe and dry. Just as soon as FEMA gives the go ahead, we will return to Baton Rouge to rebuild our camp. There is a slight chance the camp will moved to another location.
