I did and want to know where the water is coming from in NO. Why would the mayor of NO talk about the city being under nine feet of water if it is not NO?
Mom, the water coming into NO is from Lake Ponchatrain to the north via a 200 and now 300 ft breach in the levee coning down the 17th street canal. That has been the case for at least the last 6 hours.
Because the breech from the lake water will continue unabated after the pumps shut down shortly. Why would breeches at the levys in Plaquemines bode ill for New Orleans? That's the better question.
I am mystified here.
Coming from lake ponchartrain. Lake is still about 5 feet above normal.
The PUMP HAS FAILED. Just heard. The water in NO will rise to the level of Lake Ponchartrain, which is about 3 feet above sea level right now.
The PUMP HAS FAILED.
