"Given that they had three days warning and that it was 5 days before large quantities of food and water were deliveredto New Orleans "

Just how many days warning did they have that the levees were going to breach, so that most of those people could not simply go home and take a shower?


BTW- Welcome to FR

Thank you.

The levees were rated for Class 3 hurricane I think so I'm sure the Federal plan included the possibility of a break. I'm not convinced the Governor had a plan at all.
