Tropical Storm Rita is a potential  new hurricane or storm possibly headed for New Orleans by this Saturday. That’s what i have read anyway. I have read that any storm could devastate the city with flooding. It doesn’t have to be a hurricane. Just a real strong down pour of a few inches.
What is the possibility that New Orleans will have a very strong down pour of rain in the next few months? This is hurricane season. It seems quite natural to assume it will. And if it does there will be major flooding and levee breaks once again. The levees have not been fixed, they have been temporarily “repaired”. They are not  even repaired. What they have done looks stupid. It’s a stupid temporary fix. How anyone can say it’s safe to retun, I can’t imagine.

THere are unforseen possibilities, complications from a major new storm that could create an awful, awful situation to the physical envornment.

Are there any preparations or precautions being made? I was just wondering because  Mayor Nagin is calling for people to move back to New Orleans. It’s no fun being Mayor to a deserted city. The new head of FEMA emergency efforts in NO Thad Allen  is saying, …well …don’t move back because it’s not ready. That’s what he is sort of saying …because he doesn’t want to step on the political toes of the mayor.

How about telling the damn truth!

Has ANYTHING CHANGED?

Seems like everyone is looking out only after the own interests once again. Nagin wants to be a pied piper and look popular especially to businees that are no doubt pressuring him.

Hopefully the storm will not bother New Orleans. But I have read that even a bad storm….far from a hurricane could break the levees.

I don’t think the incompetent people who run our government have suddenly become competent.

What if some people move back, the storm comes, and some people do not once again evacuate and the levees (which are improvised and look like shit to me) break?

I suppose it’s only natural to assume that if this storm hits New Orleans they are going to have a lot more flooding and a few more deaths…and it seems to me that some of the deaths will go unreported because I think that is exactly what is happening now.

I wonder if anyone is listening to those weather experts who warned about the Hurrican Katrina.  Are they listening to them now in regard to this Storm?

I think the answer is they are not.
