Evac. orders for New Orleans? The whole city or the usual "low-lying areas"? My friend who lives there hadn't heard anything about it just half an hour ago. I'm so worried about her because she doesn't like to get out -- got stuck in traffic for 16 hours last year and doesn't want to do it again.
I may have received incomplete info--checking...
Evacuation decision for New Orleans at noon today. Had incomplete info.
16 hours in traffic beats 16 feet underwater

I followed your interesting threads late last night into early morning. (I'm in NJ) Around 1:30 am, I watched the weather channel talk about heat forecasted for New Orleans this weekend. He barely mentioned the possibility of the storm arriving. I can see why your friend just heard about it now.
