Just heard on the NPR news at the top of the hour, that the Superdome's roof has started to tear.
:scared:
I hope those people stay safe.

| 2. It's not 1/12 of the roof. Fucking CNN hyperbole. |

There are pictures posted in GD. There are a couple of tears in the fabric of the roof. Maybe holes 10 feet scross.
