My mother grew up in Meraux, SE of New Orleans. She said, with total seriousness, they kept a couple of axes in their attic.

Advice on KHOU is exactly that, just now: “Take an axe...”

KHOU just reported that officals are telling those at home threatened with rising water that if you must climb to the highest point in your house which may be your attic, take an axe so that you can cut your way to the roof. In some areas of the city rainfall and flooding exceed those from Allison.

There was a New Orleans Hurricane (named Betsy, I think) that had people climbing on top of their roofs.

The problem with that was that all sorts of critters wanted to share the roof with them -- such as snakes...
