Has anyone paid attention to what happened? When the winds died down (Kat left town) there wasn't hardly any flooding. It was over...done...finished. What got everyone was THE LEVEE BROKE. That's where the majority of the water came from. Not the storm itself. I think that's been missed here. Yes...the levees were only supposed to stand up to a Cat 3....but truely, it wasn't until afterwards that they actually broke. Those levees could have gone a week after the storm. After everyone had actually returned home. Has anyone considered the rammifications of that? Thousands of people did what they were supposed to and left NO. Imagine the loss of life if they had returned and the levee had gone down. Gheez...it gives me the chills.
