Are we sure the evacuation order was given on Sunday, not Saturday? If it didn't happen until Sunday, that is almost criminal.

The mandatory evacuation order didn't happen until Sunday (somewhere around 9:30 am). A voluntary order went out at 4:45 pm Saturday.

That's right. I live 350 miles east in FL and listened to the mandatory evac order on AM 870 wwl on Sunday morning.

President Bush has issued a pre-storm emergency declaration that puts federal agencies on alert to provide aid, Gov. Kathleen Blanco said Saturday night, adding that FEMA representatives told her such a move is highly unusual

Found this FWIW. The article was Sunday 25

Sorry if this already posted.
