So, I've looked at Mississippi River flood coverage, but can't find any news one way or the other about the New Orleans area. As far as I can tell, places being flooded are resultant from spillway openings and planned levee demolitions. Does anyone have input on possible flooding danger in the New Orleans area? Obviously, USACOE won't do any planned flooding in a major metropolitan area, but is there any significant risk the river cresting over the levee or the levee failing? Just wondering if I should start making backup plans.
