Ok, here's a nice little Threat for the city - Supernatural Power Struggle<br/>New Orleans was, and technically still is, a White Court stronghold. Not to the same extent as some of the larger cities, but House Raith always had a decent presence there, and the banquet that was Mardi Gras tended to attract plenty of their kin.<br/>In the wake of the devastation caused by Katrina though, House Skavis has started to muscle in. Feeding on despair, it is in their interest to keep the recovery of the city to a slow crawl, full of red tape, costs over runs and uncaring bureaucracy.<br/>Needless to say, House Raith is not exactly impressed by this, and while neither side would be so gauche as to outright attack the other, well, accidents have been known to happen, and their frequency is slowly, but steadily increasing.
