What some might not know is that New Orleans is currently extremely unprepared for a major hurricane. Some water pumps are offline, and the city is currently in the middle of a huge amount of road and infrastructure work. Flooding will likely be much worse for this storm than normal.
If you're in New Orleans, I recommend considering an evacuation if you have somewhere to go.
