quote:New Orleans is prepping for a hurricane. The flooding has already hit.
On the same day that a National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration report warned Americans of a "floodier" future, some streets in Louisiana's largest city, including in the famed French Quarter, looked more like rivers.
Lines of thunderstorms associated with a weather system that is predicted to develop into a hurricane by Friday struck New Orleans with as much as 7 inches of rain within a three-hour period Wednesday morning, forecasters said.
The city was engulfed with water, leaving residents to contend with swampy streets, overturned garbage cans and flooded vehicles. Some even paddled their way down the street in kayaks.
Chandris Rethmeyer said she lost her car to the flood and had to wade through water about 4 feet deep to get to safety.
Rethmeyer said she was on her way home after working an overnight shift when she got stuck behind a car accident in an underpass and the water began to rise.

This is where over-topping of levees is most likely if the forecast of 20' comes to fruition Saturday.

Volgens de laatste hwrf gaat deze orkaan als een cat 2 bij New Orleans aan land.
Kan snel gaan in de Golf. Aan de temperatuur van het water zal het niet liggen. Ruim 30 graden momenteel.quote:Op donderdag 11 juli 2019 16:28 schreef Frutsel het volgende:
