"They dodged a bullet? Damage is extensive and the city is now flooding. Not sure he should be saying that. Geesh real stupid."

Compared to some of the speculation last night, they WERE lucky. I heard one guy predict 50,000 dead, CNN's Aaron Brown said we might "lose a city," and a CNN expert (a professor) said there was a 50/50 chance that the city would be virtually destroyed and flooded with toxic wastes. And almost everyone was predicting major flooding in 50-75% of the city. Maybe I'm wrong, but so far nothing that's actually happened seems anywhere near those scenarios.
