Pilottown at the mouth of the "crow's foot" peninsula of the Mississippi River now likewise shows 6 foot storm surge.

In other words, the eastern side of Plaquemine Parrish which was under mandatory evacuation yesterday... is now underwater.

To understand this, look at a map of SE Louisiana. Of that peninsula jutting out into the Gulf of Mexcio... The eastern half of it, that part that is east of the Mississippi, is underwater, barring -- perhaps -- a few high points of contrived artificial levee or other manmade structure. The land itself is underwater.
