Delta to blow up to a 3, may even get to a 4 for a brief period. Path has shifted west but if Gamma weakens even more than the path will shift east again.

As you already know- NE side of Storm is the worst - Stay safe Do you have H. Shutters?

I don't have shutters. My windows are single pane handblown glass so I just don't worry about it, they'd still break even if boarded up. This house has been through a few hurricanes and all the windows except for one pane that was broken from someone leaning into it are from 1931 or so. Past experience has revealed that, weirdly enough in an area full of trees, nothing seems to ever hit windows, it's all usually higher up.
Of course, we haven't been truly hit by a hurricane in eons here, the center, way before my time, so the wind hasn't ever gotten bad enough directly. We were on the weak side of Katrina's eyewall and Gustav lost a lot of strength so, aside from trees landing in and on houses, nothing brutal overall (other than some flooding from storm tide and surge and the odd tornado).
Delta will be far enough west to not really be an issue wind wise where I live. It will certainly be windy and some trees might come down and the power could go out for days or a week but it shouldn't be a big deal. Baton Rouge will have a lot of issues though.

For the first time since Hurricane Isaac I emptied the entire contents of my fridge into the garbage. Got a little stinky.
