Someone told me that you could always out walk a hurricane.
I would have started walking.

Most runners do not go 14 miles per hour, let alone most walkers. If you can't get out, you either go to a shelter of last resort as the Superdome was, or find a safe room in your house and hunker down...As people are always exposed to people who used this third option every time a hurricane hits, they know they have a chance to survive. And yes I hunkered down for Andrew...

There is a guy in BR who after the storm walked the levee to BR,,it really isn't that hard. To Laplace would have been a nice brisk walk of about 12 hours I do believe.
