Army evac Q&A - Questions are mostly inaudible. 55 planes, 788 commercial buses invilved in the out-of-city evacs. School buses are used to move people around the city.

First audible question (and last for the army evac) - How many people left? - Dunno; people still showing up. Was 60-80,000 when we started, we're finding more as the buses continue.

Coast Guard up. 52 A/C have evacuated over 700 the last 24 hours. Lower Mississippi is open for deep-draft vessels during daylight hours. No questions at this time.

Red Cross now.
