Whats that about a few hundred yards of beach?


Yes. This was the Rita inundation map. Places as far east as Terrebonne parish got 7ft surge.

Lily lost steam as she made landfall. Thank God. Still had plenty of bite.


I was in Ville Platte and the eye passed over us ... at that point the men in the neighborhood were clearing the streets ... I mean it was almost squirrel season opening day! Ugh.

Actually the East side of Katrina missed La except for Plaqeumines Parish...a few miles to the West and we're talking about an entire different level of destruction for Louisiana.

very miniscule and expected when being a near direct hit by a major Cat 4 system. The Katrina devastation was caused by the breaches and fixing breaches which took weeks and weeks.




I know Chad, I live here too, but the wind damage was substantial. All those flooded NO houses also had blue tarps. Metry got wacked very hard by wind, as did Kenner.

even worse time IMO



When would be better? I could probably make it Saturday but I also hate to leave my recently widowed mother to deal with this alone in case something happens.

I agree Butch.... without those levees breaching Katrina would not be as talked about as it is.... still a bad storm but the total damage would have been far less....
