We are not the only weather office blogging this storm:

Nice to see the NWS alloting a person to communicate in this form. Even have some pictures available.
And, you can watch KPLC TV in Lake Charles live on the web here:

They are using a crude setup, away from their main studio. Using a single mike, and large papers on the small desk with phone numbers since they have no graphics system available. Their meteorologist, Curtis Atkinson, was an intern here at ABC 33/40 in 2000 and is from Blount county.
Just heard our own John Oldshue on the phone talking with Curtis feeding him information... go John!

Excerpt from Lake Charles NWS Blog
9:10 PM - With the power out at the airport, the automated observing unit on the runway
complex (the unit which supplies the official hourly weather for Lake Charles)
has only about 30 more minutes of functionality before the backup batteries
run out.
