Live: Francine Aftermath [View all]

I watched it live via webcam on Bourbon St. (Protected area) No damage. But Bourbon St is on higher ground and the buildings act as a windbreak.

Most of New Orleans metro had fairly severe flash flooding from rain.
Kenner had 10 inches of rain.
Storm drains clogged with debri and clogged drains lead to flooding.
This caused back up and some homes flooded with rain water.
Rain water has receded from homes. (But still, yuck)

Power outages etc.

However, unlike other cities New Orleans also relies on pumps for drainage.
A few pumps didn't work for awhile due to outages, but they quickly went back online.
Schools closed etc.

Of course, coastal areas have more damage.


I'm getting a Hurricane Isaac (2012) vibe.
