Catastrophic flooding in New Orleans East
As reported by Fox News about 11:15CST, Major levee breach on east bank of the Industrial Canal has flooded eastern New Orleans and the New Orleans lower 9th ward above many first floor windows, and up to ceilings in most houses. Reporter is stuck on an overpass and reports water topping U-Haul delivery trucks on the roadways. Also reports whitecaps in the streets and lapping onto houses. Let's hope the Lake Ponchartrain levees hold, as we are reaching a critical point with water being forced south by severe north winds at this point.
