    NOLA Braces For Life Altering Hurricane Ida

    Residents across Louisiana's coast Saturday were taking one last day to prepare for what is being described as a “life-altering” Hurricane Ida which is expected to bring winds as high as 140 mph when it slams ashore.The storm is expected to make landfall on the exact date Hurricane Katrina devastated a large swath of the Gulf Coast 16 years earlier.

    But whereas Katrina was a Category 3 when it made landfall southwest of New Orleans, Ida is expected to reach an extremely dangerous Category 4 hurricane, with top winds of 140 mph (225 kph) before making landfall likely west of New Orleans late Sunday.

    Mayor said there wasn't enough time to evac the whole city, as all the roads would have to be used for outbound traffic

    The mayor is a ****ing idiot. She actually said it would use all the roads to evacuate the city. So what’s the problem? Use all the ****ing roads. She’s a jackass…

    Take all the roads and turn them into one way out of the zone. Simple.

    But you know there will be a ton of people that won’t leave or some that actually can’t leave. I haven’t seen the busses lined up to evacuate those that need rides.

    New Orleans is a little city with a big name filled with a huge percentage of the stupidest negroes, n'er-do-wells and Truly Evil humans that have walked the earth.

    New Orleans is also home of some of the BEST FOOD, some of the nicest people I've ever met, some very strong and knowledgable outdoorsman/fisherman/hunters, and the North Shore of Lake Pontchartrain is a very nice place to raise a family/live. (I spent the better part of 2 years working on a consulting gig and lived in a cool little town on the Tchefuncta River which empties into Pontchartrain)

    Having said that, I pray for the safety of those good people. If the bad people perish, so be it.

    Having worked in NOLA and visited many times over the past 20 some odd years, I think you said it perfectly.

    And damn..the food. Hmmmm…
