knocking into bridges. interesting to see the extent of the damage where you are. thank you, morgan chesky in houma, louisiana. let s make our way east to new orleans and ali velshi who is standing by in a somewhat less windy parking lot near harras casino. how does it look where you are, particularly since you re near a part of downtown new orleans that s very built up, right near a major casino resort, not far from the convention center. but the power had still been blinking on and off where you are despite all the tall solid structures around you. it s gone. the power is all gone. in fact, there s no light anywhere in downtown louisiana. the light you re looking at here on the white trucks behind me is coming from us. it s a generator. everything else is dark. right behind the trucks, across the road, not 100 feet from us, is the casino, completely in the dark. the convention center completely in the dark. we have a new problem here in louisiana. the first concern was flooding.
