At the office with Gustav

My work area, complete with suitcase, pillow and boxes of food under my desk.
Oh, and some delicious water.

One of the kayaks near the security desk on the first floor.

Hells yeah we do.

The hurricane-shuttered front of The Times-Picayune office building, as Gustav's
outer bands begin reaching the city.

Gustav's outer bands.

I've been at the downtown Times-Picayune office for about four hours now. We decided to publish a paper tomorrow, and will attempt to publish in the coming days.

I've done few minor things for tomorrow's print edition, including a slightly modified tracking map. The rain has started, and various tornado warnings have been issued as Gustav's outer bands begin reaching us.

Right now, we're preparing things to react to the various effects Gustav will have on places such as Houma, LA.
