I just heard that the pumps are out in NO! Not good news. Anyone else hear that?




Yes, this report is apparently accurate. This is terrible news as the local TV station is also reporting that water is rising rapidly in Lake Ponchartrain.



Exactly how much water can the lake assume before the levee(s) give? Anyone know?

I just answered my own question by doing a forum search. Todd's post yesterday scares the dickens outta me.
