Absolutely mental over here. Worst hurricane ever to hit US aminland and it's heading straight at a city.

Just to make that worse, it's a city that's below sea-level with a lake on one side and the Missippi River on the other. Both are expected to break down the gigantic walls that hold back the water and flood the city. 23 feet of flood in the next few hours. That would cover the second storie of the house.

New Orleans will by tonight be covered in water, human waste and even coffins from graveyards.

80,000 people are currently living in the football stadium (which is a dome), but a few hours ago the power went out so they're on emergency generators at the moment. 9 people have died already.

Gonna be a rough few days for those folks!
