Some good news is the hurricane weakened overnight before it hit land this morning. Winds went from 165-175, which is catastrophic, to about 140 or a little less, which is about how strong Ivan was last year when it hit landfall. Needless to say the elevation in NO is still going to cause a problem, but most people doubt it's going to be near as bad as predicted. Ivan, Dennis, and now Katrina all weakened before they hit landfall, so gg.
