Predawn Flood Preparation at New Orleans Levee With Plywood Sandbags and Steam

by Stephanie Shelton

In the predawn darkness of New Orleans, Louisiana, a busy construction scene unfolds beside a concrete levee floodgate. Stacks of weathered plywood and heavy sandbags line the embankment, prepared for potential storm surges. A cement mixer sits idling on the muddy ground nearby, its drum slowly rotating under the harsh glare of portable work lights. Steam haze rises from wet tile near a drainage outlet, mixing with the cool night air. The area is cluttered with tools and equipment, reflecting the urgent, practical preparations typical of the region. Workers move through the shadows, their figures blurred by motion as they secure the barrier against the rising river.
