We are now being told that they were careful not to call the SuperDome a "shelter". They called it a "place of refuge" because they cannot gaurantee the integrity of the structure.
The owners of the super dome said that last year. There was a post showing the article last night. Said past 130 mph there is no guarantees.
I'd heard that if the Red Cross couldn't guarantee the structural integrity during a storm, it couldn't be called a shelter. Well, better something than nothing. Beats being in a wooden structure at or below sea level. Sounds as though the NG is doing a great job for these folks, too.
That's why the Red Cross did not shelter there.
Can those monitoring that feed in the Dome keep us posted please.
