okay. I just talked to a friend whose dad works for the sheriff's dept. He just talked to someone and said the following....

They have rescued 4 people from the roof of the St. Patrick's Church. The water is so high there the only thing visible is the bell tower.

There were three breaks in the levee. Not sure of the locations.

Someone with airboats (they said Jody so he's assuming Jody Danos) is going around helping to rescue people. He's picked up eight dead bodies and supposedly they've called into the emergency management people for 600 more.


again, all heresay, not confirmed, but I thought you would want to know.

God help everyone there.
