NEW ORLEANS - A relative of one of Newsradio 620 WTMJ's show gave a good description of what New Orleans is enduring from Hurricane Isaac.

"Pretty relentless," said Jamie Egan on Newsradio 620 WTMJ's "Wisconsin's Morning News." 

"It stalled out over the mouth of the Mississippi (River) last night.  Since about 8:30-9:00 p.m. last night, we've seen nothing but steady rain and torrential rain."

According to Egan, power went out in his part of New Orleans about 5:00 p.m. Tuesday night.

"We heard early this morning there was about 450,000 people without power."
