The Mississippi is very long and water levels can vary along its course. Reports from Memphis show a very shallow Mississippi. Obviously, the river where it meets the Gulf is not going to be low, the saltwater will flow upstream instead and lead to problems with New Orleans drinking water.
I used a search engine to learn about the varied river levels, the shipping issues, and the salt intrusion. As you did not have the same information, my assumption was you had not looked. Since you *have* looked but still did not see the same reports I don't know what else to suggest.

Yes, you are confused...
You initially commented that the "Upper" river levels had no bearing on New Orleans...
Hence, I responded that the "Lower" river levels were normal as of November 19th...
Then, you pivoted to say it's not about "River Levels", but "Water Flow"...
So, your confusion is causing more confusion, since it's hard to figure out what you're actually arguing about.
