Found this update.
pdated 12:01 p.m. ET] OK, so a small conflict in reports from officials near the Tangipahoa River.

Despite early reports of an apparent levee failure near Lake Tangipahoa, which is close to the Mississippi-Louisiana state line, Mayor Whitney Rawlings of McComb, Mississippi, says Pike County Civil Defense informed him that “the dam is holding, but they are concerned it may fail,” WWL reports on air.

He further said it’s a coin toss whether it will fail, but, “This might go. People need to be moving now.”

Bear with us as we work out the discrepancy in the reports and work to determine whether the dam has failed or is expected to fail.

Well, he's advising people to get out but he's still slip sliding on the stupid comment hill. If you leave the fate of your family to a coin toss you deserve what you get.
