Isaac Forecast Update for North Louisiana

From the NOAA National Hurricane Center, below is a graphic of the wind field projections for Isaac as projected a few days into the future as of Monday evening.  

It is expected to make landfall tomorrow evening, and begin having an influence over north Louisiana's weather as soon as Wednesday.

Heres the picture:


Some Louisiana amateur (ham) frequencies allocated to this developing situation are:
 3.910 at 6:00pm CST.  During the day, this net will be meeting at 7.243 MHZ

The 5th Region net taking in check ins and traffic from the following state sections - AL, AR, NFL, LA MS, OK, TN, NTX, STX, and WTX. will met on 7.280 MHZ... for sure at 10:30 AM  and possibly 3:30 pm CST.    Usually the 3:30 pm net would meet on 7.243 mhz, but because the LTN will be utilizing  there, we talked about keeping it the same frequency as the morning net.

3.890 MHZ  is a 'tactical' net for the delta division.  This will be used for priority and emergency traffic in and out of effected areas.  (if my understanding is correct).

Some hurricane watch nets are on 14.325 mhz.  and 7.265 or 7.268.  

A SATERN  (salvation army team  emergency net)  meets at night on 75 meters on 3.977.70 mhz.

When checking into these nets, follow the instructions of the net control stations.
