Five feet of water in the downtown areas and in St. Bernard Parish have as much as 10 and 12 feet of water.

The LSU professor on WWL said St. Bernard Parish flooded to that depth in two hours yesterday.

He said the levees are 17 feet high, but the waves were 22 feet high.

the LSU professor is doing great explaining the levee system and the breaks, etc. I don't know who is the (male) host, but he is driving me NUTS because he keeps interrupting and overtalking the details! grrrrr..........

Server is timing out, big surprise, so I'm not sure of the part after the ".edu".
