I heard on the news a 50" main is ruptured, I would imagine this is a huge feeder to the city. I would also imagine pumping stations are not working no water pressure.
**edit** Its a mute point anyway. Everyone needs to get out as it fills up with water.
The wost is yet to come. in the next couple of weeks things are going to get really ugly down there. Not only in NO but in all the communities along the gulf that were destroyed.
I sense they are downplaying the amount of deaths. I will not be suprised to hear numbers in the thousands. Too many people refuse to evacuate. Some cannto afford to, some stay to protect their stuff other stay to steal others stuff. Still others just refuse to leave. My father in law is like this. He stayed for all the sotrms that hit us in Fla. last year.
