How Cindy Knocked Up N.O. Radio Stations

Thought I'd throw in a little analysis of how TS Cindy affected N.O. radio last night.

'TIX-FM and Hot 104.5 went off the air at about 6:00 - 7:00, I believe. Of course, they were the first to go, since their tower is in lower Plaquemines. The tower came back online about midnight, and Hot eventually resumed broadcasting. 'TIX-FM is still off the air; no surprise there.

106.7 the End had a similar issue, but they're also back on.

B97 and Kool 95.7 went down for a little while around midnight, but it wasn't a long period of off-air time for them.

I don't know how the 94.9 half of Praise 94.9 is doing right now, but I can elaborate on 94.7. Eventually, the signal got real garbled and then went off the air. The 94.7 tower is back online, but is not broadcasting anything.

Anyone want to add?<P ID="signature">______________

WGNO-DT, WNOL-DT, and WYES-DT are all still off air, as of 1:00 PM.
 
While I was walking the dog this morning, I turned on B97 around 8:30 and it was fine with the Best Of Kidd. However, at 9 AM, when I switched back after one of Kidd's never-ending commerical breaks, there was just garbled nothingness. I thought it was my radio at first, but everything else was working fine, so it must have been with B97. Did anyone else have a similar problem with them this morning?
