Local Red Cross Preps for Isaac

LONGVIEW — As Isaac’s projected path is taking the storm further west, the local American Red Cross is preparing to jump into action. American Red Cross has setup a staging area in Longview as they wait to see where Isaac will make landfall. Anita Foster with the Red Cross says right now the storm is expected to hit New Orleans on the same day Katrina hit the “Big easy’ seven years ago and that could mean yet another mass exodus of Louisianans. Foster says the red cross is ready to leap into action the moment the storm hits land.
