Authorities in New Orleans issued a declaration moments ago requiring all residents to evacuate the city in anticipation of Hurricane Katrina. Exceptions were listed exempting essential emergency and other personnel.
News sources previously said that for those who cannot leave, the SuperDome may be considered a refuge of last resort.
For the last day, outward-bound residents have jammed area highways in an effort to vacate the city.
Sources consulted: CNN, MSNBC, Fox News Channel.
