Levee BREACHES & OVER-

TOPPING ! ! Near New

Hal Turner,

13 July, 2019

A levee has been BREACHED near New Orleans and water is POURING through as of 10:00 AM eastern US time, near New Orleans, LA, and Hurricane Barry has not yet even fully arrived!

The storm reached Hurricane strength this morning and is now a Category 1 Hurricane with maximum SUSTAINED winds of 74 MPH, and gusts to 87 MPH.

Also, at this hour, 63,000  customers are without electric power in Louisiana from the initial bands of the storm -- but the heart of the storm has not yet reached land.

Per the National Hurricane Center "Data from Air Force recon indicates that Barry has become the 1st hurricane of 2019 as it begins to make landfall in central Louisiana this AM."

UPDATE 10:25 AM EDT --

In addition to the breached levee shown above, reports are now coming in from Plaquemines Parish that levees there are being OVER-TOPPED by storm surge.

First responders are battling rising water that is overtopping a back levee system that protects some parts of Plaquemines Parish from coastal flooding.

Plaquemines Parish Homeland Security Director Patrick Harvey tells WWL-TV that crews started seeing overtopping along the back levee system that protects the Myrtle Grove and Pointe Celeste areas off Highway 23 around 5 a.m. 

The levees that are seeing overtopping are separate from the flood defenses that protect the parish from the Mississippi River.

HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
Key Messages for Barry can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT2 and WMO header WTNT42 KNHC.

STORM SURGE:  The combination of a dangerous storm surge and the
tide will cause normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by
rising waters moving inland from the shoreline.  The water could
reach the following heights above ground somewhere in the indicated
areas if the peak surge occurs at the time of high tide...

Intracoastal City to Shell Beach...3 to 6 ft
Shell Beach to Biloxi MS...3 to 5 ft
Lake Pontchartrain...3 to 5 ft
Biloxi MS to the Mississippi/Alabama border...2 to 4 ft
Lake Maurepas...1 to 3 ft

Surge-related flooding depends on the relative timing of the surge
and the tidal cycle, and can vary greatly over short distances. For
information specific to your area, please see products issued by
your local National Weather Service forecast office.

RAINFALL:  Barry is expected to produce total rain accumulations of
10 to 20 inches over south-central and southeast Louisiana and
southwest Mississippi, with isolated maximum amounts of 25 inches.
Across the remainder of the Lower Mississippi Valley and western
portions of the Tennessee Valley, total rain accumulations of 4 to 8
inches are expected, with isolated maximum amounts of 12 inches.
This rainfall is expected to lead to dangerous, life threatening
flooding.

WIND:  Hurricane conditions are occurring over a small area east of
the center and should persist for a few more hours.  Hurricane
conditions are possible within the Hurricane Watch area today.
Tropical storm conditions are occurring across the Tropical Storm
Warning area to the east of the center at this time.  Wind gusts
to tropical-storm force in squalls are possible along portions of
