I drove around Slidell yesterday. The only repair people I saw out working was AT&T. I did not see one CLECO vehicle or any electrical contractors.

This doesn't help at the moment, but they're coming from as far as Delaware and Nebraska. Hang on .. I know what it's like.

I been seeing plenty trucks and lineman-Baws moving west on I-10 in Slidell. I’d venture to say out infrastructure damage isn’t as bad as that of Terrebonne/Lafourche.

Buddy of mine who works for FP&L said he left Monday to head to St Tammany with a bunch of crews.

Not St tammany, but the hammond mall parking lot was filled with trucks. Id say at least 100, but probably more.

Entergy was out in Madisonville with a ton of bucket trucks yesterday.


The only other comfort I can offer is that we saw literally hundreds of bucket trucks, trucks hauling generators of all sizes, and National Guard convoys coming in from the west as we drove to Houston.

Help is coming, and a shitload of it at that.


ETA: obviously no help to St Tammny residents necessarily, but there were also a shite ton of bucket trucks staging at the Hammond Mall as we drove thru. That interstate exit was backed up about half a mile with more bucket trucks getting off there.
