according to cnn tv about 10 minutes ago a major mall with four major chain stores burned to the ground due to no available water to fight the fire
edit: ok that was wrong, check the comments… rachel (the oh so intelligent sister) says:
Actually — that was Oakwood mall on the westbank in Gretna

the guy on the interstate (aka the reporter) pointed to metairie hence the confusion… sorry… but still really bad!

Hello everyone,
I hope that everyone is OK and hopefully able to read this message. I have some info that could be used to help assess some damage and some links that provide info and aerial photos.
I have have some friends in Lakefront prove to their insurance company that they are indeed flooded with several feed of water. I have access to elevation and map data that should provide assisance some people that are making flood claims. If your insurance company is not cooperating or doesn’t yet believe that you are flooded then I can generate some screen grabs of the elevation data maps that can help. It will be weeks before any of us can get into New Orleans to assess the damage. If you want to get the claims rolling then I might be able to help. And with finding pictures and data on the web you should be able to get some proof that your area is under water. Just email me if you want some maps of your neighborhood. Please provide address for me.
Some links that may help:
scipionus.com – provides some reports of flooding in specific areas.
nola.com – new orleans newspaper

digitalglobe.com – satellite photos
spotimage.fr -more satellite photos(infared)

good luck to everyone!
