  1. https://www.wwltv.com/video/weather/water-rescue-crew-says-flooding-in-lafitte-is-highest-its-even-been/289-0947a3c0-914a-4a30-8767-2d22e1a19639
  2. A whole lot of bad stuff happening in a whole lot of places. There'd better not be any reporters standing in the French Quarter tomorrow saying "Well, it doesn't really look that bad here."
  3. That NNW movement (rather than NNE) is bringing some of that train of moisture that's been heading into Mississippi closer to Lake P.
  4. If that backbuilding keeps hanging on, that's a whole lot more water into the areas just south of Lake P.
  5. The sudden backbuilding of that band is quite something.
  6. Slidell PD spokesman on WWL saying that this is far worse than anyone anticipated. And the live shot is showing some pretty bad conditions.
  7. WWL showing doppler estimate of 12-15" in a bullseye centered right on Laplace.
  8. This isn't storm surge, this is torrential rain.
  9. WWL reporter showing that I-10 near the 610 split in Metarie is covered with water. He sounds pretty disturbed by it, worried about where the water would be coming from.
  10. It was a big thing in Katrina. Only go into the attic if you bring an axe to be able to hack through the roof.
  11. When a city is already below sea level, you can't exactly dig down a whole lot.
  12. https://www.nola.com/news/article_b62d2c58-0928-11ec-a42e-9354b46469fc.html The Kerner Swing Bridge in Lafitte was hit by a barge, Jefferson Parish officials said just before 7:30 p.m. Sunday. "Any residents that may still be in Lafitte are advised to not attempt to drive on this bridge," the parish said in a news release. "We do not believe it is structurally safe."
  13. It is a lesson that seems to need to be learned every time that you don't say that somewhere "dodged a bullet" until the storm is gone and the sun has come up. And even then, you remember that there will be places you don't hear from immediately and those end up being the worst hit.
  14. Teensy tiny image of the before version.
  15. We know we're all watching to see that house explode.
