Not sink, but flood. The amount of rainfall a hurricane would dump + being below sealevel + having a very very poor drainage system = Worlds Biggest Swimming Pool

The rainfall is inconsequential compared to the bigger problem of storm surge. A strong hurricane would literally push the nearby oceans and lakes in to NOLA, and like you've said there's no drainage, so it becomes one big toxic swimming pool. If a storm hits just right, we would be talking about the permanent destruction and abandonment of NOLA.

That's what I thought 🙁
 
I'm here in Metairie, 5 miles west of New Orleans. Doesn't look good. Gonna head to Baton Rouge to at least get out of the "bowl" in case of the theoretical worst case storm surge.

Prepare for the pouring out of Vial Judgments. God's wrath hath come. The very God of Love must be awesomely affected by the hatred of the sinner, to need to pour out this kind of wrath. The Wrath of God is provoked by the sin of Schadenfroh.
