Anyone know the specs of the Super Dome. How much wind can the roof sustain? With Andrew F5's were in the hurricane. NO way that roof can sustain a F5.The Dome is reinforced concrete; I don't know what the wind-specs are on it, but I would suspect that it'll survive. The catch is that the floor of the Dome is at street level. The floor of the Dome will flood in this storm.

WWL still showing bumper-to-bumper on the interstates. They're running out of time.

The mayor said last night that the Superdome is rated for 200 mph.
