However, my cousin's next door neighbor's dog's vet's brother-in-law that lives on Lowerline said that the mayor flew over his house in his helicopter laughing at him.
BTW, if the mayor did get his family out of town on his private Mayor Copter on Friday he did so even before the National Weather Service issued a hurricane watch for New Orleans.
Nope. As of Friday noon many of the models predicted the storm to hit NO and head up through TN and NC. I made sure our cars were filled and added to our emergency supplies and I am 1,000 miles away from NO
By Friday night Max Mayfield of the National Hurricane Center took the unprecedented action of calling the mayor and the governor personally to plead with them to begin MANDATORY evacuation of New Orleans. and they said they'd take it under consideration.
His family was long gone by that time.
