Sad to see the vacation state like this.

Lots of old homes and old Oaks that have weathered 100+ yrs of storms friend.

Note the parishes in red down south: nailed by hurricanes in 2020 & 2021 and his data was before Francine.

The ones in the north east of the state there isn’t shit up there and a crappy place to live.

LA isn’t by far the most attractive state to live in but the people in these parishes tend to be die hard long lineages. They just couldn’t afford to rebuild.

Another thing to add for anyone who goes through a storm. Take a video of the entire inside of your home prior. It’s great for documentation. It’s also date and time stamped.

Not sure if it’s been said, but Atlanta Motor Speedway has opened up their gates for evacuees. Camp grounds are open for RVs and the like for those that may be heading north.
