Pundit Guy paints a very grim picture of what may happen to New Orleans in the next hour or two:
Unless she receives a last minute act of Divine Intervention, New Orleans, as we know it, will cease to exist in a few hours. Hurricane Katrina is gearing up to geographically change that city. The winds will cause havoc, but the real killer is Storm Surge.
I surely hope that Pundit Guy is wrong here . . . I was in New Orleans back in March . . . and I'd like to think it'll still be there after today. More than half a million people have been evacuated from the city and immediate surrounding areas (that number is way out of date . . . it's probably two or three times that by now). I hope they have homes to come back to.
Hat tip to Jon for the link.
