Plaqueminnes Parish abuts Orleans Parish on the southeast side. Miss River passes from Orleans to Plaq. just east of N.O. Plaq. parish extends southeast to the gulf; the Miss River remains in Plaq. for the final 60-80 miles of its' trip to the Gulf (on a map, Plaq. Parish is the finger of land that extends fartherest southeast into the gulf). Hope this helps; cities Boothville; Venice;Pointe a la Hache (Grand Isle is in Jefferson Parish).
Thank you. So by the current tracks, Plaquemines and Jefferson are truly ground zero and will get the first landfall, and Plaquemines will get the northeast quadrant. Wow. I'd *almost* rather be in New Orleans than to be on that finger of swampland and bayous with a Cat 5 hurricane bearing down on me.
