Jindal declares emergency preparing for storm, Shreveport Times, July 23, 2010:
Gov. Bobby Jindal on Thursday declared a state of emergency… [The storm] was spending a lot of time over water, instead of land which would break it up. “It’s wise to prepare for a Category 1 hurricane, just in case,” the governor said…
The biggest worry, state officials said, is that winds and high tides would drive the Deepwater Horizon oil far up into Louisiana’s marshes, which serve as nurseries for much of the nation’s seafood. If that happens, it could also enter coastal homes and camps. “There’s a potential for winds and waves to drive oil inland,” Jindal said. … He said BP wil be held accountable for any damages caused by oil intrusion.
Agriculture Secretary Mike Strain instructed cattlemen along the coast to secure their livestock to prevent any exposure to oil…
Parishes with low-lying areas that usually flood during storms are expected to issue evacuation orders today as the disturbance moves closer to the state.
If you need help evacuating or if you can help someone to evacuate http://pub47.bravenet.com/forum/static/show.php?usernum=3957401277&frmid=0&msgid=0
I just read the story, and I did not see any mention of “evacuation” I saw “state of emergency” There IS a difference. Any way we can get our shaky fingers off the panic button in an effort to remain accurate and balanced?

read the article ‘Todd’– the part where it says:
Parishes with low-lying areas that usually flood during storms are expected to issue evacuation orders today as the disturbance moves closer to the state.
so, anyone thought of what happens if the oil seeps into the sewer systems of homes even further in, with the gases, methane, benzene and others? it’s not pretty to think about.
if it’s mandatory, you’ve always still got the few people that stick around to find out what happens….it’s not pretty afterwards either.
