Re: Gustav Approaching Louisiana, Hanna Slowly Drifting Westward

Update on some of the levees:
Loose Barge is somewhere in the Industrial Canal and the Coast Guard is looking for it so it can stop it before it can cause any damage to that levee.
Water topping west side of NOLA's Industrial Canal Levee.
Water overflowing old Lower 9th Ward Canal levee; getting close to overflowing on the new Lower 9th Ward Canal levee.
EM personnel are becoming increasingly concerned with these developments as the surge is expected to continue as Gustav continues to make landfall.
*This information is coming in from the major news outlets and I am typing them as they are talking about it*.
