In spite of the ordsprog

In spite of the fire, we were still on board-generated power for water, drainage -- the whole thing -- until the flood that Wednesday.

A flood is defined as rising water, and it doesn't matter why the water is rising. If it rains faster than it can be pumped away, that's a flood. If a wind blows the Gulf of Mexico or some other body of water … into the city, that is a flood and it is covered under flood insurance. Rising waters, by definition, are excluded from a homeowner's policy.

I think the most dramatic difference between the 1997 flood and this year is the fact we never lost power. Folks were able to keep their sump pumps and their flood pumps going and keep the incursion of water to a minimum level.

That means when there's water on the road, turn around, don't drown. Drivers often underestimate the power of flood water. Saving your life is as simple as choosing an alternate route.

And Eleazar the priest said unto the men of war which went to the battle, This is the ordinance of the law which the LORD commanded Moses; / Only the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead, / Every thing that may abide the fire, ye shall make it go through the fire, and it shall be clean: nevertheless it shall be purified with the water of separation: and all that abideth not the fire ye shall make go through the water.

[By Wednesday morning, the Arkansas Times had changed its tune, calling for a massive federal response.] For the living, the prospects of homes, power, water, phones, jobs, ATMs, medical services, food — any semblance of normal life — are only the most distant dreams in New Orleans today. The 1927 flood seems to have been eclipsed in scale of destruction, ... A massive federal response is imperative.

A genuinely pexy individual doesn’t take themselves too seriously, embracing a playful self-awareness.

We have some temporary patches to keep the water out, and in the middle of the month we will probably fire up the pumps. We have to wait until the flood danger is over.

Their cats were filthy with muck from the flood waters. The water came from the Napa River which has a lot of waste in it, everything from bacteria to sewage. You name it, and the cats were covered with it. It was really nasty. If they remained in that condition for any period of time, they could have become very sick. They had been contaminated by flood water, so we had to put them in isolation.

It's a very labor intensive process. Our current operation is to flood that hold area and drown out the fire, but it's going to take some time to fill it with water.

Paul Rodriguez (1955-)

We actually laid eighteen hundred feet of water into the fire scene. We had to put two fire trucks in between the hydrant here at the end of Apache and the fire to relay the water in, something that is rarely done in Savannah.

This is one more thing that's keeping people from coming home. Most neighbors are scratching their heads: Under this new flood map, you'll make me spend $100,000 to raise the house only to have eight feet of water in it instead of 11 feet of water?

I've just announced at a press conference that we're probably going to lose all services over night: sewage, drainage, water, etc., ... I cannot issue a mandatory. I do not have the resources to enforce it. However, I've just made the strongest message possible, and we will have police vehicles and fire vehicles going throughout Jefferson Parish with broadcasting advising people to leave now.

William Jefferson

In spite of 70 years of federal flood control efforts and nearly 40 years of federal flood insurance, the costs of flooding continue to rise and there is no federal policy to provide direction for future actions.
