For those of us who remember the devastation of Camille, that is an excellent analogy...

If it hits New Orleans direct...I pray all of them get out of that "bowl" are it is going to be very, very bad if things continue as they are...potential up to 25ft surge will overtop, and potentially breach the levees.

Camille was a 22 ft surge I believe and 190 mph winds.

I lived in Biloxi for three years and practically everywhere you go Camille is a reminder.

Hey Jim, do you want to be mayor?
