8/29/2012 2:00PM As of 2:00PM today, Isaac continues to lash Southeast Louisiana.
The entire area is under a flash flood watch and tornado watch (most of area)
until 7:00AM Thursday (August 30, 2012) morning. Isaac remains a 75-mph hurricane and is
headed NW at only 6 mph. Entergy Corp. says Hurricane Isaac has knocked out
power to more than 450,000 residential and commercial in southeast Louisiana. Officials
say crews are not able to start repairs until winds drop below 30 or 35 mph,
which is likely to be Thursday morning at the earliest.
Based on the above information, at the earliest, we are tentatively
planning a delayed opening tomorrow afternoon at 2:00PM assuming
support staff can get to the property ahead of that time. Support staff includes relief engineers, elevator
technicians, parking garage clean up crew, etc.
As circumstances change, we will provide further updates. The next update will be around 9:00AM
Thursday morning.
