I live 60 miles from the Mississippi coast so we are keeping our fingers crossed. You have to have special insurance to cover flood damage. Most don't get it unless they are very close to the coast. The problem in NewOrleans is that many who lost their homes were poor. Homes were passed down from generation to generation and were uninsured. For most of those leaving, they can kiss their stuff goodby.
