I know, and 2 more storms are on the way behind that. Are you near the Tchefuncta? They are worried about storm surge because the storm is predicted to come in west of New Orleans. That will push water counter-clockwise on the east side of the side of the storm. Which means it will push water into Lake Pontchartrain. Tchefuncta will flow north due to the pressure from Lake Pontchartrain, so there will be flooding in the area of brackish water, probably up to about Covington. And that would back up all the bayous leading into the Tchefuncta. So you don't want to staying near a flowing waterbody. For Katrina the large storm surge from Pontchartrain was projected to be onto the N.O. Lakefront. which it was. But Lakeshore Drive in Mandeville was flooded I think up to Monroe St. My son was living there at the time.
Still, it's called the 100 year storm because you don't get them every 3 years. I'm hoping statistics are right.
