we have very heavy rain up through mississippi. we have a couple areas under -- a threat of isolated tornadoes. there's one tornado warning out there right now. we'll continue to see how it plays out. as far as the forecast path, what's left of the storm, we're not concerned with the winds anymore. the winds are down weak enough that we don't expect additional damage. the storm surge, so far all the pictures we've shown you of the water that was high, that was from storm surge yesterday. that storm surge was 3 to 6 feet. one location i heard hit 7 feet. that's down by at least half. so now they're saying storm surge, one to three feet during the day as the winds continue from the south. wee haven't shown you dramatic pictures of rainfall flooding. that comes next. here's an interesting graph. the tropical cyclones, storms or hurricanes, doesn't matter what they are, the speed that they move depends on how much flooding we get. if we can get the 20 inches of rainfall, you know, the storm system would have to be going less than 15 mi

particularly when the mississippi river is at flood stage. it's going to have a significant economic impact on america. charles: we should point out to audience, new orleans itself continues to sink even deeper. so, you know, just, you know, the amount of water that came through with katrina, with the storm surges and the broken levees, it may not even have to be that much water if the town itself is taking even lower below sea level. >> absolutely, sir. katrina -- it wasn't the rain water that got us, it was the levees breaking that caused the city to flood. as is the case, we have the threat we have today which is still a tropical storm, up to 20 inches of rain many some areas. charles: right. >> that is going to flood several parishes because as the water flows, it flows back toward the gulf and toward the mississippi river, and those parishes will flood twice. first from rain water, then from runoff from the parish north of them. it's a dilemma we have, but it speaks, charles, and we've spoke many times about we need to update our infrast
