no they failed in the city proper but it did take a good, long time for the word to get out. It was basically like this until they managed to get a chopper up and then the world could see that the levees had failed.
question - are those levees earthen levees that erode when overtopped or full-on concrete flood walls anchored in Casons driven into the bedrock?
Anyone know?
Jefferson Parish EMS scanner, something about people needing roof rescues, water rising to roof-level? Sorry, couldn't quite make it out but something like that...
regarding those generators, this IS a government project we're talking about, I'm sure they don't work because somebody put 'em in the basement and it's now flooded!
