I think they need to find a way to get people out of the dome and moved to other facilities, perhaps schools out of town.

Yes, he said if they don't start draining it soon it will move towards the Superdome. Dear Lord. http://www.wwltv.com/

I just heard WWL say the Superdome is at the low point? Why on earth did they evacuate people to the lowest available elevation?!

How sound is the dome? I mean, low level flooding they can climb higher for a while. If the structure is damaged..

I don't want to think about that.

The superdome is above sea level. I don't get it. Unless of course Lake Pontchartrain is still above sea level, which seems hard to believe. It is sad just how poor and ill informed the reporting is.

The water has been rising since this morning, it was just a matter of time. I wondered why they didn't start getting people out of there early this morning.
