Its gotten a lot worse - 175 mph sustained winds now - and evacuations underway from NO - this is now rated at the second worst hurricane ever in the US - worse than Andrew and Camille - and while Camille only killed 270 people it hit east of New Orleans - I just hope people get the hell out of New Orleans now - if this thing hits head on its going to be an amazingly bad disaster
Unfortunately there are too many people there that think this is something they can ride out - I guarantee you that the mayor would not be ordering a mandatory evacuation fo the city and the president going on tv soon to plead with people to leave - cause they know whats going to happen with the thousands (or loads more) getting killed due to their own stupidity
