4. Center is moving at 13 mph, up from 7 mph yesterday.

At 200 miles across, we're talking 15 hours of tropical storm or greater rates of rainfall over every square foot of territory. If it slows down as it turns north, that's even more rainfall. The sole 'blessing' is that the eye is projected to pass to the east of New Orleans (not so good for Gulfport and Mobile), so New Orleans won't get the worst of the northeast quadrant of Katrina.
