It wasn't the lake but a levee.
There saying 20-30 foot storm surge pushed right over the levee, which is at 20-25feet. Either way, it's really bad. I've got a talk about(Beeper) and I'm getting reports of things being really bad off.

Would love to know what you find out about Slidell...we lived there for a time about 5 years ago (left there 8/2000). We have friends in Pass Christian MS and my husband was stationed at Stennis Space Center when we lived in the area.
Thanks!
