He was talking about people in the French Quarter... he advised them to be in a building of at leat 2-3 stories and to have the means for hacking out a hole to get out onto the roof.

I thought he said that. It was in the context of a discussion about refugees in the Dome. But Amelia thinks he was referring to people staying in their homes.

I do hope she's right and that I heard wrong.. The very thought of people climbing onto the roof of the dome to escape water is horrible.

I also hope people aren't staying in their homes armed with axes.

No, no, no. You're mixing comments made by two separate officials over the course of the past 24 hours.

I'm gonna have to check out of these threads because the misinformation I'm finding here nearly outweighs the factual stuff.

Ugh.
