Alabama Power Company reported 204,650 power outages as of 11 o'clock tonight.

That pales when compared to last September when Hurricane Ivan devastated the state.During that tragedy there were 800,000 outages.

To the Crew at ABC 33/40:

Thanks so much for your on-air, marathon-length coverage that was very informative! I know that being alert and on air for that long is difficult at best, but we sincerely thank you for your hard work. James, you especially are great. And, I agree with you that Mike Raita did a fantastic job -- or in the words of Raita himself, he was "tremendously titanic" ;) -- anchoring the news. Of course, Dave, Linda, Pam, J.B., and John really did well, too. Hope you guys rest now because it looks like the tropics are going to stay active. Get ready for Emily . . .
