Algiers - Phones, Water and Power
Another Algiers-specific update:
Phone
I can't speak for the rest of the city, but Algiers, at least, has sporadic phone service. However, they do not seem to be able to call out. If you have not heard from someone who you believe to still be there, keep trying to call. I am getting through more often than not...
Water
Sounds like the earlier rumor about problems with the water in Algiers were false. Everybody is still using the water.
Power
Also, Algiers has a power station that apparently remained dry. With luck, they'll come back 'online' soonest. I have read that Entergy will require a complete rebuilt of the system, but that same article also said there were isolated areas that were not as damaged. Read the article here (it was posted before the Times-Picayune was evacuated earlier today).
