There is an aerial photo posted by ell_13 in the other South Point thread showing what I assume to be South Point subdivision.

Your brother might be able to see how his property looked during the height of the water level there.

Drove Juban to 16 last night . Water was impassable by vehicle just past Hebron church and to the west about 1/4 mile last Juban. Could not make it that way. You can access the north side if the area thru Brown rd.

I live in the back part of south point. You can get to that school behind the neighborhood via buddy Ellis to john L to Brown if you have a truck. From the school you can walk to the back part of the neighborhood just have to cross a little ditch. Same works for people trying to get out. Friend came and got me last night. Power was still out.

Thanks .
I actually used that and forwarded it to multiple people not on here in Denham and EBRP it saved a lost of folks efforts wasted and atleast provided them insight to the sevarity of the situation and kept some from being on the roads.

My brother in law lives in Southpoint. We picked him up yesterday. He said most of the houses were under water...especially those up front.
