This storm is some kind of relentless, !@#$ing juggernaut. Port Arthur east of Houston is flooded out now, as most of us in H-Town are seeing sunshine. People behind the reservoirs in Houston are flooding now, as it starts backing up, which really sucks, because they thought they had made it.

That's what 15+ Trillion gallons of rainfall does.... NOLA got about 5-6 Trillion gallons from Katina.

News is saying 9 trillion, but whatever.

They said it is enough water to cover the lower 48 in 0.17" of water.

It's totally different than the other Gulf hurricanes that I can remember in that by now we'd be getting rain bands up here. But it all stayed down there this time. Even with Katrina we got a bunch of rain about 4-5 days later.

Enough rain fell to fill a cube 2 miles x 2 miles x 2 miles.

if each one of those gallons were a dollar, it would only pay off half of our national debt :shots::Entropy:

My wife says she read it would take 17 days for that much water to go over Niagra Falls.
