Honey Island range?

not sure if it is even open

The range is on the Pearl River WMA and that WMA closes anytime the Pearl River gets above 16 at Pearl River. Gauge is showing just under 17 currently, so it'll be closed until the river goes back down

This is the current level at Pearl River which is what we go on.

We say it needs to be below 16ft in order for the WMA roads to be navigable but in recent years it's actually closer to 15.5ft before the water lever gets under the bridge.

Based on it being over flood stage for almost a month now, it may take a week or so before we can get in there to inspect our equipment to make sure we're able to open.

I cross that exit twice daily and the Pearl has been pretty high for a good while. Hell the liquor store exit under the bridge has had water over parts of the road for over a month. That range seems to be closed more than open

Roads still closed

Will not open until next weekend

More water is being dumped into the West Pearl since the control structure east of Bush collapsed a couple years ago and more water than ever before is now coming down the West. The mouth of the West has been silting in for decades and the water has nowhere to go. So it stays flooded for longer periods.




Meanwhile, the Corps and all their logic deem it's more important to clear all the Bayous in Slidell of limbs and debris. Facebook Link
