Southeast Louisiana is officially suffering an extreme drought, with precipitation totals since the middle of last June more than 20 inches below normal, according to the National Climate Data Center.
"I know the idea concerns the public, but these kinds of cracks are a common occurrence when you have this kind of drought condition. A real good rain would take care of them -- they'll just close up. But they are being watched," said Jerry Colletti, an Army Corps of Engineers division chief in New Orleans.
