Last night, the mayor was telling people to take the train out of town.
Yes anyone who stays in town is crazy. I hope the Super Dome can handle the Cat 5 winds.
I heard that also. He was also saying that he thought he was going to have a nice relaxing evening with his family when he gets a call from the Gov. telling him that the NHC had called him (Gov) and that the mayor needed to call him and listen to what he had to say. Guy from NHC told the mayor.....this is the BIG ONE and it IS going to hit your city! It is the one NHC have dreaded for 35 years. Even after hearing that he doesn't issue mandatory evacs but encourages people to leave. I am sick of hearing his "legality" excuse. He has wasted all this time when they could have been helping all the poor people that aren't going to be able to get out. Didn't they have a plan in place for this? Makes me very angry that a lot of people are going to die due to poor planning and feet dragging.
