The pumps in that area are expected to fail and nine feet of water is predicted in the entire east bank within hours. A flotilla of rescue boats behind her, Martha Smith stood Tuesday on the safe, dry pavement of Interstate 10 and glanced back over her shoulder at a crescent city under a sea of flood water:``My city,'' she said, ``is gone.''
All residents on the east bank of New Orleans and Jefferson remaining in the metro area are being told to evacuate as efforts to sandbag the levee break have ended, according to WWL-TV. The pumps in that area are expected to fail soon and nine feet of water is predicted in the entire east bank within the next 12-15 hours. New Orleans lies mostly below sea level and is protected by a network of pumps, canals and levees. Many of the pumps were not working Tuesday morning. Downtown streets that were relatively clear in the hours after the storm were filled with 1 to 1 ½-feet of water Tuesday morning. Water was knee-deep around the Superdome. Canal Street was literally a canal. Water lapped at the edge of the French Quarter. Clumps of red ants floated in the gasoline-fouled waters downtown. In New Orleans, water levels rose and conditions rapidly deteriorated. Tuesday - the tens of thousands of people now huddled in the Superdome and other rescue centers would have to be evacuated.
