NOW. MICHAELA, TELL US WHAT YOU'RE SEEING THERE. >> YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT, ERIN, IT IS COMING DOWN IN SIMPSON COUNTY. WE ARE IN MCGEE AT THE LOVE'S TRUCK STOP RIGHT OFF OF HIGHWAY 49. AND YOU CAN JUST KIND OF SEE JUST HOW T THIS RAIN IS COMING DOWN SIDEWAYS. IT'S REALLY JUST HITTING MY BACK RIGHT NOW. I WANT TO TAKE YOU OVER TO THIS DRAIN HERE UNDERNEATH WHERE THE GAS PUMPS ARE. YOU CAN JUST SEE HOW MUCH WATER IS FALLING IN SIMPSON COUNTY. IT IS COMING DOWN FROM THIS DRAIN. A LOT OF WATER IS FALLING. YOU CAN HEAR FEEL THOSE GUSTS OF WIND THAT CHRISTANA KAY AND ISABEL HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT. YEAH, THEY REALLY DO FEEL LIKE 30 TO 40 MILES, YOU KNOW, AT ONE TIME IT FEELS LIKE IT'S NOT RAINING HARD, BUT ALL IT TAKES IS THAT GUST OF WIND TO MAKE IT FEEL LIKE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT DYNAMIC FROM THAT RAIN. YOU KNOW, JUST DRIVING UP HIGHWAY 49 FROM JACKSON INTO SIMPSON COUNTY. THOSE ROADS ARE SLICK. IF YOU ARE TRAVELING THIS MORNING, YOU'LL DEFINITELY WANT TO SLOW DOWN 10 TO 15 MILE PER HOUR SLOWER THAN WHAT YOU NORMALLY WOULD GO. THESE ROADS ARE SLICK. THIS WATER IS STANDING AND CONDITIONS HAVE DEFINITELY ARE MUCH WORSE THAN WHEN WE INITIALLY DROVE HERE. PROBABLY ABOUT AN HOUR AND A HALF AGO. IT IS DEFINITELY COMING DOWN A LOT HARDER. THE WIND HAS PICKED UP SIGNIFICANTLY. YOU CAN SEE THAT IT'S RAINING SIDEWAYS FROM THE FRONT. NOT A WHOLE LOT OF WATER HERE, BUT IF I TURN AROUND AND SHOW YOU MY B BACK, I CAN GUARANTEE U THAT I'M DRENCHED. BECAUSE AS I MENTIONED, I AM STANDING WITH MY BACK TO THE RAIN RIGHT NOW FOR OBVIOUS REASONS. BUT YEAH, IF YOU ARE COMING THROUGH, SIMPSON COUNTY, IF YOU HAVE TO TAKE HIGHWAY 49, THE WATER IS COMING DOWN THE RAIN RATHER, AND THERE IS DEFINITELY STANDING WATER ON THE HIGHWAY, SOMETHING YOU'LL DEFINITELY WANT TO BE CAUTIOUS ABOUT AS YOU HEAD OUT THE DOOR THIS MORNING.

AS YOU CAN SEE, THINGS DEFINITELY PICK UP PERIODICALLY. BUT WE ARE GOING TO BE HERE. WE'RE GOING TO BE MONITORING THE CONDITIONS HERE FOR YOU ALL WHO HAVE TO
