New Orleans


Katrina Flooding
Originally uploaded by terpkristin.
My thoughts and prayers are with those in NO and their families, not only residents but rescue personnel and others touched by this disaster.

This picture is a shot from www.easternuswx.com, where it shows the flooding. If you follow the link to the flickr page, I've made a note on the page where I think my brother's place is. I'm hopeful that he was in an area high enough that his place isn't flooded, though he DOES live on the ground floor so I suppose is susceptible to looting, too.

If anybody has information on what's going on in the French Quarter (more specifically, the 3100 block of Royal Street), I'd be obliged if you'd share it with me. Leave a comment here or send me an email.

Holy crap!

Your brother was in New Orleans? CNN has a "safe" list up on their site at http://www.cnn.com/safe , and you can get the latest developments about NOLA from http://brendanloy.com .

I hope everything turns out OK.
