I think that's right. Shep was saying that there was no flooding yet in downtown, then I went to bed, got up in the morning and WHAM! NO was flooded.
Was that Monday night?
So, the hurricane was still in Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama, (and Georgia, if I recall), plus NO was flooding, blocking the roads.
Well, now I really can't understand why the NG didn't rush right in bright and early Tuesday morning, can you?
