Reports of post-storm help massing in region, but how do they get to NO? The city is surrounded by bridges, LOTS of bridges. Remember I-10 in Pensacola Bay? The odds are great that many bridges & causeways will fail, severely limiting access to the area.

A military sealift command Ro-Ro would be nice to have online.

They'll barge on the river - there is plenty of equipment in the region, and additional help can literally come down the river from unaffected states. The biggest issue is how many of the dikes they'll have to blow up to drain the city if the worst case scenario happens.
The most honest truth is that if things go extremely bad, they won't need the extra equipment in the city for days if not a week.
