Noticed on the map it's surrounded by lots of bays and lakes.
Makes me wonder, how close are those swamp gator hunter tv shows on Discovery channel to Gallino?
Some of them are from Slidell which Is on I-10 about 15 minutes east of new Orleans on lake pontchartrain.

Eye of the storm has actually just passed directly over Houma.
