ABC World news talked to the NO city manager Friday night, he said that if they got hit by a cat 4 to expect the dead to be 10,000 plus and that the city would be under water for 6+ months.
It would take 72 hours to get 60% of the city evacuated, and I'm sure that is in perfect conditions. Don't walk, RUN... |

I just got done watching the news. This is really bad for those people. A storm that big will wipe out a lot of that city. I hope it weakens but it's not expected to. It's going to be a real mess....

Its gotten a lot worse - 175 mph sustained winds now - and evacuations underway from NO - this is now rated at the second worst hurricane ever in the US - worse than Andrew and Camille - and while Camille only killed 270 people it hit east of New Orleans - I just hope people get the hell out of New Orleans now - if this thing hits head on its going to be an amazingly bad disaster
Unfortunately there are too many people there that think this is something they can ride out - I guarantee you that the mayor would not be ordering a mandatory evacuation fo the city and the president going on tv soon to plead with people to leave - cause they know whats going to happen with the thousands (or loads more) getting killed due to their own stupidity |
