It’s actually just a flash flood. People on social media blowing shyt up as per usual. The storm isn’t projected to make land fall until this weekend somewhere between Lafayette and Lake Charles,

Heavy amounts of rain fell in a short period of time. It hasn’t rained in 3 weeks. Most places would flood. Most of the water in the city has been pumped away.

The biggest and scariest issue isn’t the rainfall, it’s the Mississippi River rising above 20’ ( the height of the levees)if the surge from the storm flows up the mouth of the river. The river usually crest this time me of year, but we normally don’t get disturbances in the Gulf this early .....

Contrary to popular belief the city didn’t flood from rainfall during Katrina..... the man made levees breached causing the city flood.


In case you wondering

The city is full of above ground pumping stations, that pump the water through canals and bayous out to the lake. The problem was/is the city not having enough pumps working to handle a heavy quick rainfall. They city says that 118 out of 120 pumps are working today ... I hope they’re not lying this time.

I was down on Mud Island last Friday and my mom pointed out how the water looked. I was like Figured at the time it was cause of the rain we got, but I thought about it
