Don't have anything directly on Thibodaux, but a few hours ago a reporter who road the storm out in Houma said he didn't see any major structural damage there, unlike what he did see as he got close to New Orlean.

Thanks for the Houma report. Give some idea of Thibodaux.

They'll be letting people back into Houma at 4PM, so things can't be that bad there. Thibodaux is further inland, so things are probably relatively good.

From Houma's newspaper, The Courier:

CURFEW ENDS AT 4 P.M.
Residents can drive Terrebonne Parish roads
Kimberly Solet

Terrebonne Sheriff Jerry Larpenter will allow motorists back home beginning at 4 p.m. today. Shelters will allow evacuees to head home. Clean-up work from Hurricane Katrina has been taking place all morning, including picking up downed trees, cable and telephone lines. The work is expected to finish by 4 p.m.
Evacuees are urged to wait until 4 p.m. to head home, as all the clean-up work is not yet completed.
