It is possible parts of the levee will brust open as water is trying to be pumped out of New Orleans

The entrance to the canal from the lake has been blocked, and water's being pumped back into the lake, not the canal. Even if the water in the city is somehow helping support part of the levee, and it fails, the inundation will be relatively minor.

I have to ask a question: What is the purpose of the canals (canal system) in/around NOLA again?
