re: The Great Flood of 2016: Fill Out Disaster Forms NOW. Link Inside!

*Bayou Paul update. Not confirmed per any news source.

We are evacuating. I talked to one of our neighbors is/was a state rep. who's been on the phone with Mitch Ourso. As long as the current flooding stays consistent we will be fine. But there is a chance that the locks that separate Bayou Manchac and Alligator Bayou/Spanish Lake might fail.

If that happens I expect to see bad flooding for the Bayou Paul area.

I do not know if this means anything for the UClub.

Anyone with updates on the Sherwood Manor neighborhood right across from Winn-Dixie on Old Hammond near Millerville?

closest pics I've seen. This up the street towards fire station /Ponderosa



Mobil station

I'm just a little skeptical because claycut bayou is falling which is just north of ward creek
Most other reports show water receding in areas south of ward creek
And his point of reference is a stick

But that's just my opinion

Claycut is back fed by Amite - Ward is by Manchac, which is still rising over the interstate.

Can you provide a little more information as to why?Would this be to allow water levels to continue to go down? I'm concerned about the rain making travel more difficult as the week goes on.

story relayed in prairieville, nat'l guard evacuating people, wouldn't allow them to take their dog.

Old Hammond now dry, high water truck only rescues off millerville.

Definitely yes still flooded

Many people forgot to turn off their ACs before leaving and returning to find fried circuit boards and seized up compressor as the water flooded about 6"

I suspect that has been the case numerous times. I've seen several Facebook posts of people finding pets on air mattresses. Figured folks tried to evacuate with them and couldn't.
