I would have zero confidence in this Mayor. When he couldn't make up his mind last night to order an evacuation, I couldn't believe it.

I would have evacuated without his order though as soon as I saw what was happening.

If the winds remain at 140 - 160 m.p.h., I wouldn't want to be in just about any structure in the NO area.

The report on FoxNews right now pegs sustained winds at 160 m.p.h. Earlier gusts were reported as high as 190 when the sustained were also about 160.

This does not look good at all. There seems to be an attitude from people that they are tired of evacuating. A number of people are staying in the area. I think that could turn out to be a fatal mistake for far too many.
