Whenever the first big one makes the news each year I always wonder if New Orleans will survive this one. Need to go raise some hell there one last time before it’s reclaimed by the sea
FWIW, the levees held for Ida, a cat 4 that hit a couple of years ago. It was the first big test and passed since Katrina. But yes, sadly the city is sinking. But enjoy it while it is here! Truly wonderful place.
Truly wonderful place.
Doubt.
EDIT: Golly gee, how could I possibly dismiss the wonder of the swamp city filled with mosquitoes, crumbling infrastructure, poverty, and racism? Truly a magical place that anyone would be lucky to visit /s
The French quarter isn’t below sea level like the rest of the city, so it should be fine.
