I have several relatives in NOLA. Talked to others further inland and no one is getting word of their condition.

Based on what I've seen televised, ALL of them have lost their homes.

A mixed blessing, but my grandparents died 6 months apart last year. Had they been alive, they would have also lost their home...and lives.

A few of my cousins evacuated to Houston and one from Dallas, but I have yet to get in contact with any of them successfully. Some chose to remain in NOLA, and no contact from them either.

I believe many felt that they were only going to experience a bad rainstorm with heavy winds and that would be about it.

Strange to see familiar sights in NOLA looking the way it does now...
