SLIDELL, LA - AUGUST 30: Joshua Barbot moves a log while preparing to rescue family members in his boat on August 30, 2012 in Slidell, Louisiana. Hurricane Isaac storm surge caused flooding in Slidell this morning on the north shore of Lake Ponchartrain. The large Level 1 hurricane slowly moved across southeast Louisiana, dumping huge amounts of rain and knocking out power to Louisianans in scattered parts of the state. The weather system has now been downgraded to a tropical storm but is still producing heavy rains and flooding as it moves north. (Photo by Mario Tama/Getty Images)
