I worry about Shep speaking a little too soon. He seemed much too calm. At 6:30 the power is still on, there's no flooding and the Shep is standing in the middle of the street and the winds don't even seem that bad yet.
And with them talking about the hurricane further weakening and turning east it looks like New Orleans will probably miss the worst of it. What a break!

FNC reports the NHC has informed them that the hurricane has just made landfall East of Grand Isle.

It's still a Cat 4 and the eye is going to brush NO. This is horrible for that area.

well, predictions yesterday were that a move to the east would first cause the water to pile into the lake, then as the storm moved north, the north to south winds on the west side of the storm would shove the water from the lake into NO. I'm not sure if that scenario is "called off" now?
