Tropical Storm Debby 
is gaining strength out there in the Atlantic. News and weather agencies are watching it, as they tend to do. nola.com is on it as well, with links to evacuation and preparedness right there with storm tracking. New Orleans is justifiably antsy—no other North American place is a better study in the hows and whys of being ready.
I can't get over New Orleans. After a year of being knocked about by storms from the ocean and from various capitals, the city is doing everything it can to put itself back in place, step by step . It's a real study in the resiliency of people, too. Lots of people from outside the Big Easy are coming in, as we've posted. And a lot of evacuees from last year are staying away for whatever reason—a chance to start fresh , or maybe no other option . New Orleans, nevertheless, rolls on .
The city was so completely savaged by Katrina and the aftermath . And while it will take time, rebuilding is going on daily: People live in New Orleans and are working to get their home in order. Let's just keep our fingers crossed that the next "Big One" is a long way off.
And when it comes, we'll all be prepared and ready for it.
