a relatively weak storm but weather forecasters say bury slow speed means it could dump huge amounts of rain over the region water levels are already threatening the city's levees as authorities warn of deadly flooding across the gulf coast tens of thousands of people have already lost power in the state of louisiana. and joining us now from new orleans is dubious correspondent helena humphrey helena barry was a hurricane and it's now weakened to a tropical storm but how big of a threat is that still pose to the region where it's made landfall. make no mistake my it is still very much a threat meteorologist say it is normal for a storm to be downgraded once it hit lands and once it hits land because then it is not over the water where it sucks its energy up so this is rather normal but at the same time of course the warrior with barry has always been the water in a flood prone area where we are now for example in new orleans we worried about
12:05 am
that long slow epic drench of water in the coming days and i will say that one levee one river has already overflowed levee not here by the mississippi river the river but about an hour and a hoff away from here and there we saw a flash flooding triggered i've already sold and ground in another part of the state we saw 12 people have to be rescued by helicopter today and even if this storm has been downgraded we normally see the 1st hurricane of the year on the 10th all organists already this is one month and it's not just the levees right there are fears that the mississippi river might overflow its banks is that still a concern that has been a concern what i can say right now is that the river is very swollen as you can see it has reached about 5 meters today and the levees are at 6 meters they were significantly rebuilt in the wake of hurricane katrina the governor says right now
12:06 am
