11:52 a.m.: Evacuees Huddle In Hallways At Chalmette H.S.
People who took shelter in Chalmette High School are now huddled in the hallways because the windows have blown out. The building has sustained significant damage. There are reports that the water is 10-feet deep near the high school and is rapidly rising. -- WDSU.com Web Staff
Meredith from Hammond/WGNO:
Lots of houses damaged, oak trees through houses...
I am looking for any information on Slidell and the north shore. I think it probably got a direct hit from the wall of the storm. This area has gone entirely unmentioned by the media and it may well turn out to have suffered the worst damage. Many, many people there didn't think they needed to evacuate. Please post what you hear.
