Anyone know the specs of the Super Dome. How much wind can the roof sustain? With Andrew F5's were in the hurricane. NO way that roof can sustain a F5.
Wind gust of 225 mph is projected.

NO way that roof can sustain a F5.The Dome is reinforced concrete; I don't know what the wind-specs are on it, but I would suspect that it'll survive. The catch is that the floor of the Dome is at street level. The floor of the Dome will flood in this storm.

Superdome specs say it can withstand 200 mph winds. Of course, what the specs say and what could happen in the real world may be totally different.
