Update as of noonish today, the water hasn't gone away, but it isn't any deeper either. I should also note that this is, relatively speaking, good news, as my house is five feet off the ground.

Jesus Christ, man. I wish I had something more to offer than my relief that you and yours are alive and relatively well.

Well, the bar three blocks from my house was apparently in about three feet of water at some point today.

Probably means I'm in the market for a new car. Hopefully, thats all.

Addendum: Well, it seems that the levee up by the 17th street canal has let go, and is letting Lake Ponchiartrain into the city on the other side of my house. Joy.

Well, that wasn't bad as far as evacuations go, only took two hours longer than usual. Decided on Little Rock over Houston, and the primary danger in this neck of the woods is that Lucy wil be spoiled rotten by her grandparents.

Now, here's to hoping that the house doesn't blow away and well have power before Labor Day.

Glad to hear you made it out of town safe.. Hopfully it won't hit Little Rock too hard.
max16characters:
I sincerely hope you have something to go back home to...and, barring that, that you managed to take with you your most cherished heirlooms/possessions and the like.

It probably says something about my age when the prelude to a rollicking weekend is new computer hardware and a TV show worth watching.
