How about this for a warning you hope you never hear (from Miles O'Brien's blog on CNN):
"Mayor Ray Nagin told folks to make sure they fill their upstairs bathtubs with water, and in case of real trouble, make sure you have a way of hacking through your roof -- so you are not trapped by rising water."

Dumb question of the day - why do they want people to fill up their upstairs bath tubs? Its probably really obvious but I'm missing it.

I was wondering the same thing. [/b][/quote]
I'm sure it's to drink, but reading from what happened last flood, the water rose so fast people trying to escape were trapped and drowned in their attic.
Hey would this happen to Amsterdam also? I've never been there but I'm guessing most of the city is below sea level also?
