the water keeps pouring in to new orleans.. the latest word is that the governor of louisiana is calling for the total evacuation of the city of new orleans... from the AP:With conditions in the hurricane-ravaged city of New Orleans rapidly deteriorating, Gov. Kathleen Blanco said Tuesday that people now huddled in the Superdome and other rescue centers need to be evacuated...
Because of two levees that broke Tuesday, the city was rapidly filling with water and the prospect of having power was a long time off, the governor said. She also said the storm severed a major water main, leaving the city without drinkable water.
this combined with out of control looting has turned new orleans into a total disaster area.. hospitals are now being evacuated due to the rising water.. one positive note - the super walmart in kenner has made a point to be open to supply the impacted area.. gotta give those guys some credit
