Local News video of where water breached the 9th ward area east of the Industrial canal again.
They just dried out and it is now flooding back up to the roof lines.
The Lake level has been rising. The Industrial canal is same level as the lake.
Just another foot and New Orleans will go under water again.
They are evacuating where I am here, lake is starting to come inland up here on the North Shore.

A lot of oxygen tanks were on board. Just a spark set off a chain reaction.

Dozens of blocks in a New Orleans neighborhood are now under water.
The water is pouring over a patched levee, in the form of a waterfall at least 30 feet wide. A National Guardsman says, "Our worst fears came true." He says if it keeps up, the levee will breach, and he says it "will fill the area that was flooded earlier."

Remember that building seen in the Helicopter evacuations you saw on TV? That building.
Automatic fill is not working on generator so have to manually go outside every 1 1/2 to fill the tank.
Storm surge is already at least 6 feet here, New Orleans is re-flooding.
I have some pics and Video and will try uploading in a bit.

It's possible but it looks like dry air is getting in from the NW side. That will keep it from getting stronger.Originally posted by: alien42
is it still possible for rita to put on the brakes and build strength before hitting land?
The eye and convection are looking better; I wouldn't put it past Rita to put on a few more MPH.Originally posted by: conjur
