How has a device that can evaporate mass quantities of water not been invented yet?


You know it rains when mass quantities of water evaporate right?

No, 21.5 would be the max, unless of course they change the crest forecast.


It's worth noting that this depends on where you are in the relation to the river, and where your bayou empties into the river.

The Amite is at 46.2 feet in Denham Springs. The 21.5 feet projection is for Bayou Manchac. There are quite a few bayous with back flow issues in between, so the "safe" height is going to vary wildly. If you're anywhere in the drainage area and you're worried at all, get out and come back tomorrow evening.

Im in gonzales between 621 and Babin. No standing water here at all but someone posted drone pics another EA stadium and it looked like the stadium and baseball field were under. Heart of Gonzales doesn't look good and StAmant appears to be in the crosshairs now.

As of an hour ago Shenandoah avenue was open. You can route your way through the side streets to reach most streets in the neighborhood
