Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It's still flooding, and I think the logistical difficulties (food, potable water, sanitation) are too much for the city to handle, with all of the flooding and damage.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
CNN:
Rising waters force evacuation of tens of thousands who sought refuge in New Orleans rescue centers, state governor says. More soon.
Crap.

What is even happening?
Have things gotten much worse recently?
The latest figures I saw online were that 80% of the city is flooded. It's as bad, flood-wise, as if it had been hit head on, with the category 5 storm. The levees are giving, and the water keeps pouring in.

I wonder if any progress has been made on closing the breaches. It looks like I-10 East out of the city is pretty much destroyed.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
yeah, the water is rising around the Superdome. At least one hospital is inoperable.
Everyone has to go.

Silence means security silence means approval
I wonder if any progress has been made on closing the breaches.
The Corps of Engineers and the National Guard are trying to come up with a plan that will plug the holes effectively. They're saying that it may not be until tonight before they can start.
WWL is saying "hundreds" of looters -- but the police can't do anything because they're too bust rescuing people and the police cars are low on gas. Also, the jails are inoperable.

How does this happen to a highway? I don't get it.
Well, my guess is the roadbed of the highway is only "loosely" attached to the supports in order to allow for expansion and contraction of the roadway due to temperature changes.
