Last night I talked to iReporter James Carroll, a grad
student at Tulane. Up until Sunday morning he'd been debating
whether to stay or leave New Orleans. Around noon, he and a friend
evacuated, passing
boarded homes
and National Guardsmen as they left the city.
That night they reached Gulf Shores, Alabama. It "seems
safer" he said, even as he snapped this
image of Gustav
looming off the coast. "I'm worried about NOLA."
