Jerry, if I remember correctly, Bradley is a teenager.
He apparently lives on the North Shore, Mandeville/Covington area. Storm surge isn't as big an issue where he is.
Bradley, you guys hunker down in the morning because the winds will be going pretty good where you are.
Yetti, NO has a pumping system but it doesn't keep up even in strong thunderstorms. A couple inches of rain can tax the pumping system. It is not designed anywhere near to handle a direct hit from a hurricane and especially not one of this size and magnitude. I wouldn't be surprised to see 20ft of water standing in the French Quarter and deeper in other parts.
You'll see some floating caskets and the worse thing is that sewage and debris will mix with the water and the city will be inhabitable for months. Can you say disease infested?
