Census Reports suggest Approx 1/2 Million people live in New Orleans

estimates of about 30% would die in a cat 5 cane if directly hit...
that would put the POTENTIAL LOSS OF LIFE at 150,000 in NOLA ALONE!!!

According to the amount of cars I've seen tonight... it's safe to say that people are listening to the warnings. God bless those that may stay in the path.

If that stat doesn't change your mind, do our military a favor. Get one of those tags below, fill it out and tie it to your toe when you hear the roof blow off....

I have been watching WWL almost continuously and the roads are wide open according to the State Patrol & DOT. They are saying this is the perfect time to get rolling if you have the means.
