The levee system has been rebuilt. Katrina was a much larger hurricane with a much higher peak intensity.

Our building codes have improved since 2005. 

However the surge & inland flooding impacts will still be very bad for many. Ida should continue to slow prolonging the flooding dangers.

Agreed, it’s going to be bad for sure, but people thinking along lines of Katrina are way off base.

possible the eye goes to the east of the location, but there aren't many good options closer to the center of track/coast without putting yourself at too much risk.

I know that area decently well - the world ends in Houma. Nothing south/east is safe in a storm, for sure.

I think the core misses downtown NO, but there is still going to be a lot of damage from this.

Yeah but better in the swamps than right into NO or the Mississippi Coast-especially viewing that camera in Grand Isle. Maybe it can sit there awhile and spin down abit/slow down abit before moving on it?
