yeah. My aunt is from southwest of NO...she came up here about 4 days ago, to wait it out. Figured it was a good time to visit. She lives in the bayou. Her house is up on stilts, so even a hard rain brings the water up under her house. So she's just praying this doesn't destroy her house...before she can sell it that is.

Luckily, the city is still standing, and those that I know there are safe.
