You are correct, he was saying before the hurricane ever hit that NO most likely dodge the bullet.
Talk about grandstanding freaks. Amazing how in a place of utter destruction the reporter class appears so pristine.
That's because they weren't listening to the people that warned that if the storm was to the east of NO that it could cause catastrophic damage to the levee system and massive flooding. I heard that on Sunday. The hurricane hit on Monday morning. The French quarter was pretty much dry right after the storm. So when did it break? It had to be sometime Monday evening or during the night.
