His reporting is silly, yeah it's windy so get behind something and stand up an report vs acting like a paid kite clown or the wind sock he's appearing to be......but hey it makes for great theater......:o)

Levees breached on the lake means the pumps can't drain the city, at least not the ones that pump into the lake.

There are some that pump into the Mississippi, they will have to do all the work.

There will be deep water in the lower neighborhoods, which is where the poorest people live, in the crummiest structures, the ones that have termite damage.

Bad news. Pray.

CNN reporter is seeing daylight INSIDE the Dome. Estimates 8% of the roof has blown away ( a pie-shaped section about 1/12th of the entire span).

They are not out of the woods in NO, the wind will change and come from the north over Lake Ponchartrain and if the levee's fail the flooding will begin. That's in about an hour.

I think reporters are looking for a live kill on television. This is just nuts.

Anything for the Money Shot. Sigh.

Only a temporary fix, but I filled up the tank yesterday morning. 1/2 tank cost me $40.00

Debris flying where Steve Harrigan is.

I was in Guam when a hurricane with sustained 70mph winds decapitated a neighbor women with a sheet of corrugated tin. The man better go inside, or forever become famous posthumously.
