Has your experience so far been better or worse than post-Katrina? Katrina was horrible but this may even be worse

Worse than normal, but better than post-Katrina, IMO. Maybe because so many locals lost their cars?

It's like you guys completely forgot what Katrina was like.

What's seems unreal is that there is nothing open on the range corridor going to the interstate , yet there is traffic everywhere. Where are these people going?

Much better.
Post Katrina gridlocked almost every surface street in the metro BR area. Interstates were parking lots. For months after, I took River Road from downtown all the way to St. Gabriel just to get to 74 and then to 73.

Many people off work and many people helping. Some people have 20+ people gut a house. Plus people out buying supplies.

It's been horrible on the old Jefferson side of town. Not as bad as post Katrina though

Or to help family/friends with flooded homes, which is what we'll be doing in a bit.

Much better. With Katrina, Baton Rouge's population essentially gained 30,000 people overnight. My drive home from work went from 10 minutes to 40 minutes. I haven't seen anything like that with this disaster.

Traffic on I12 near Robert is a clusterf$&k right now

Post Katrina was worse for sure

Traffic today is retarded. The entirety of the tri-parish area is trying to get to Central

It wasn't bad until like Thursday or Friday but you have a lot of people from out of town coming in to help today
