I'm back from my 45 minute cat nap. Wow i feel much better.
Flooding is confirmed visually in N.O. I feel that it was impossible to tour the leeve system as said in a prior post during the storm. There is wide spread flooding in N.O. in 50% of the town. Some areas water is up to the gutters on single story dwellings. 16-18" of water in downtown Mobile as well. Confirmed 25-30 ft surge in Gulfport /Biloixi area. <<read Producer notes in abouve post.
Water 6" deep on second floor of building. God Bless anyone being effected by the flooding. I fear the fatality #'s will start rolling in some time this afternoon. I will update as i hear things, or until my superiors tell me to quit posting info. Next FEMA conference call is at 1pm

est. Will update after that call.
