Ooh I like this game!

City may open storm shelters but won't say where

Mayor Ray Nagin said Friday morning that if winds associated with a tropical depression heading toward New Orleans reach 35 to 40 mph, he will call for New Orleans residents living in trailers to evacuate the temporary homes.

Nagin said the city will open shelters as a last resort for trailer dwellers who cannot seek refuge in their partially rebuilt homes, or with friends or relatives.

The mayor said city officials have identified the shelter locations, but he refused to say where they are or how many shelters will be available.

"We'll give you that list if we need it," Nagin said.


Let's play Find-the-shelters! What do we do? Scramble toward the highest ground... or just go wherever the wind is blowing?

Wouldn't it be fun if these mysterious "shelters" are really just the Superdome?
