Looks more like it exploded, based on the debris. Look at the car and light pole to the right.

Yes but the storm itself was moving at one and even 0 mph at one point

I gotcha man, it didn't look that way. New Orleans is so rich with culture like this that the loss (at least to me)
No doubt. My grandfather and his family are from Nola and owned a couple of bakeries that I’m hoping are still standing. Sorry for the misunderstanding, brother

Prairieville has been rocking 60-70 with some strong arse gusts over the last hour
Prairieville is much closer to the storm than the BR airport is

Yeah. You see the workers who are currently on the clock now? Those should have been the only ones considered “essential” during covid
Tomorrow and for the next few days/weeks, i dont want you to complain at all about restaurants or stores being closed and you not being able to get what you want.
Those employees will be going through the same shite as you, but expected to also provide people with service with no gratitude given.

Surely things are better a whole arse decade later

Well we are an essential department. We understand that when a storm comes and if we are either at the yard or the designated shelter that we are getting paid.... because once it lets up we are balls to the wall...
We were told to be at the yard around 11 am... then told basically 'half' of the crew would be on the clock and the ot'half' wouldn't start getting paid until around 6-7 p.m. but they couldn't leave... not sure if I explained it enough... but this type of thing has never happened this way...

Hopefully the very worst will end for New Orleans in the next hour or two.

My sister and BIL are there. It's bad, but so far no major damage. They aren't out of the woods yet. Ida ain't in no hurry.

They did it for workers' comp insurance with LWCC. It runs pretty well.

I think that wall fell towards that car and the bricks scattered once it hit.

Would this be the same as the metal high-tension power pole towers?
That’s what I’m picturing. Lost a bunch during Laura here last year and they took a while to put back

How many mph is the storm moving at? 2??!
Posted on 8/29/21 at 9:00 pm to The Boat
I’m on 431 north of St. Amant close to Port Vincent and I can confirm gusts to over 100mph. shite has been absolutely atrocious for two hours.
