Grand Isle south of NOLA.
Apparently one of them, Dan, gave out his cell number, so i decided to text him this: "Dude I hope yall live but chances are yall won't make it past the flooding."
He just responded saying "Pray 4 us."I think they're starting to get worried now.

So Gustav is now a cat 2? Isnt that relatively harmless? By the way, I dont know about hurricanes
Truer words have never been spoken. It's better for the people of NO for it to be a 2, but people still die in 2s, 1s, and even tropical storms. There's nothing "harmless" about any of them.
A tropical depression skipped over the Texas coast and stalled over Laredo a few years ago. Ask anyone who lost loved ones and/or homes how dangerous a Cat 2 hurricane is...
There's a runaway barge in NOLA.
Hence why I said relatively, and why I clarified that I don't know anything about hurricanes. You being an arrogant ass about it doesn't do anything other than making you look like an arrogant ass, mmk?
ing wuss hurricane
Gustav has officially made landfall as a Cat 2 hurricane at Cocodrie, LA

I think the 3 drunk guys from Houma are on it....
"Relatively" implies some level of harmlessness, something only your dumb ass might think exists, mmk?
I was only agreeing with your assessment of your knowledge of hurricanes. No need to get your panties all in a wad...
You ing jackasses are so incapable of having a normal conversation. Good work ing the thread up.
Who the do you think you're fooling? you were being a ing prick about a perfectly valid question. Next time, either asnwer the question with civility, or SHUT THE UP!
man, shut the up! go counsel someone that gives a what you have to say.
The thread wouldn't be ed up, if Chucky here knew how to refrain from making idiotic smart ass comments.
Back to my original question, how strong is a cat 2? is NOLA still in danger of being erased?
And the plot thickens...
Water is splashing over the Industrial Street Canal, and CNN is reporting a breach of a canal in the 9th ward. Said the water has breached at the base of the levee and flooding is occurring.
The big problem now is if the water erodes the base then the levee is bound to cave in sooner or later, and when it does that whole area is going to flood again.
Haven't the levees been reinforced or something? I mean, after Katrina, one would think they would be.
About 20% completed. It's a rather extensive project that wasn't expected to be finished until 2011.
Theres only so much you can do.
They have been, but you're still talking about a crapload of water up against them.
The water is just splashing over over the Industrial Canal right now, so things seem okay for now.
But the levee over by the 9th ward that they are reporting a breach of stands at 14'. If that craters, you've got 14' of water pouring into the lower 9th ward.
They had reinforced several of the levees but weren't done with everything yet.
ah ok. Man, talk about horrible luck
Hurricane hunter reporting 115 mph winds at flight level as of 10 AM.
Grand Isle, La. reported completely underwater from surge.
Its just damn sad to think a city like New Orleans, with so much history, is in danger of being destroyed. After Katrina, it was really something to see how people united to rebuild it.
Here's to hoping Gustav takes it easy, man!
