CBS did show one body being covered with a white sheet and showed video of a blanket covering the body of a man who jumped to his death off the I-10.

(and somebody on this thread said the I-10 situation is not as bad as those people on their rooftops in which the water is no longer rising).

Poppycock!

hard to say..... at 95 degrees outside, I woud not want to be in an attic or on a roof all day... but these folks have no choice. You have to wonder how many will be found in attics. My concern is this city is so big, how do you search every house in enough time to rescue even those barely alive? Especially with what they are calling 30 days to drain the water out.

I saw those people on I-10 today, holding babies and the heat. The reporters had sweat running down their necks; I can't imagine what the people are suffering. And to top it off, sleeping on I-10 overnight.

It is bad enough you are in shock at what has happened to your home, your city, your life, now you are sleeping on cold concrete at night, no real food, water, protection from the elements. Then the concrete heats up during the day... I agree about a health crisis about to emerge.
