Has anyone heard anything from Waveland, Pass Christian, Bay St. Louis, or Picayune yet?

Yes, Bay St. Louis and Pass Christian were completely destroyed.

Reporters have reached all areas I'm aware of (except parts of the Delta SE of New Orleans) I can't remember which ones with with networks are are where now.

Bay St. Louis I know for a fact that the surge was far in excess of Camille. One family had built a new house with its foundation higher than the high water mark of Camille (nothing could ever be worse than Camille again) This new house flooded up to the ceiling.

Pass Christian--Reports said that no buildings stand in Pass Christian

Bridge between Bay St. Louis and Pass Christian gone

Some sports guy was on who's family had a house a mile north of I 10 behind Waveland/Bay St. Louis. They had water up to the attic.

If you pull a map of Bay St. Louis and Pass Christian up you will notice St. Louis Bay and Jordon River behind it. There is a good chance people in Waveland, Bay St. Louis and Pass Christian were washed toward the Bay. There were reports on another thread of large losses of life in this area and bodies floating. This was based on a coversation with a Freeper who was in contact with one of the recovery teams down there.

If you pull up a map of Bay

Anderson Cooper just did his show from there. See if you can find out when it replays.

I heard this afternoon that Waveland is gone. Nothing left but roofs.
