The entire area was under a hurricane watch and warning for an extended period of time. There was no reason for anyone to be caught off guard.

I agree. My brother lives in Slidell and works for NASA. He and his wife left well in advance the day before and were safe at home with my parents in North Alabama a full day before the storm hit. I do not understand why people did not evacuate. Why tempt fate?

In any event, my God bless these poor souls who have suffered and died.
