Re: Rita is totally unwanted!!!!!!New Orleans floods again


Here's the story

The water is pouring back into a neighborhood of New Orleans, as the city receives wind and rain from Hurricane Rita. Dozens of blocks in the city's Ninth Ward are under water as a waterfall at least 30 feet wide pours over a dike. It had been used to patch breaks in the Industrial Canal levee. Water is waist deep and rising fast on the street that runs next to the canal. A Georgia National Guardsman said, "Our worst fears came true." He said if it keeps up, the levee will breach, and he said it "will fill the area that was flooded earlier." The area was one that was hard-hit by floodwaters from Katrina. It had finally been pumped dry before Rita struck. The renewed flooding comes amid wind and rain from Hurricane Rita, now nearing the Gulf Coast.On a street running parallel to the Industrial Canal, the water is waist-deep, and rising fast.Earlier in the city, resident Glynn Stevenson said, "You can't do nothin' about it." He's from New Orleans and he's evacuating again. After Hurricane Katrina, Stevenson had to swim out of his house with some belongings taped to his body. Now with rain falling from Hurricane Rita, he's bailed out of his Federal Emergency Management Agency trailer in New Iberia, La. Officials are pleading with people still in New Orleans to pack up and leave. Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco said anyone who stays in threatened parts of the state should maybe "write their Social Security numbers on their arms with indelible ink." The Crescent City could be soaked with three to fives inches of rain from Rita. The Army Corps of Engineers said that's about the tipping point for levees that are still holding, but were weakened by Katrina. The Corps said it would take only about a-half foot of rain to flood through them again.At 10 a.m. CDT, the center of Hurricane Rita was located near latitude 27.4 north, longitude 91.9 west or about 220 miles southeast of Galveston, and about 210 miles southeast of Port Arthur, Texas. Rita is moving toward the northwest near 10 mph, and this motion is expected to continue during the next 24 hours. On this track, Rita will make landfall near the southwest Louisiana and upper Texas coasts early Saturday.Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 135 mph, with higher gusts. Rita is at the border of Category 4 and 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale. Slight weakening is possible before landfall, but Rita is expected to come ashore as a major hurricane.
