Just got home and took a shower, and feel guilty about doing so.
I was thinking the same thing that I got to come to my house and hug my wife and daughter after all the children that I saw that had nowhere to go today. Heartbreaking.

I'm afraid many will be out and about whenever it stops flowing in the correct direction.

Lakeside Daq's..would that be from Bayou Fountain?
I would think no. I sand bagged in university villas today for several hours and it's about 3 feet below flooding that neighborhood. That's right across the street from lakeside right next to bayou fountain.
So idk what caused lakeside to flood

You deserve God status for this work.
And last link isn't working.

Update from Shenandoah/Oneal lane/Jones Creek-- Oneal closed on Shenadoah side, not sure about near Walmart/Centurion etc. Forced evacs of apartments near St Jean Vianney School. Police shut down road and escorted people with no cars to buses staged at Penecostal Church on Jones Creek. Creek where new construction bridge is being built flowing over banks. Homes in jeopardy as well. Neighbohood adjacent is filling with water. Creek near Antioch /white oak side of Shenandoah over banks and flooding bridge that you cross to enter neighborhood. It's getting real here in Shenandoah, and I do not think we will be high and dry for long. Husband seems to think we'll be okay. I am not so sure.

I personally believe backwater flooding has already started and is heading up (slowly) Bayou Fountain. But such backwater flooding won't peak until the crest reaches that blue x.
I just personally put eyes on it at bluebonnet... it's flowing slowly in the correct direction, but it's real high... in the near future, I believe you are correct and it will spill over

Is there anyone that lives in this area that can tell us what the water is doing?
Rode my bike to Old Perkins and Bayou Manchac. The water has gone up about 4" in the last 3 hours.

It is still freaking raining in Lafayette. It's not a downpour, but it is steady.
Never seen a 48 hours like this in my life, even in tropical storms and hurricanes.
I have to say, Lafayette infrastructure has held up extremely well. Few power outages, drainage still working in most of the city, road and bridge closures are isolated.

Anyone hear anything about the water rising in walker? Just heard they had to suddenly evacuate 3 lakes subdivision. We are a bit down the road from there, and s/o is worried
Posted on 8/13/16 at 9:36 pm to PhiTiger1764
Yeah I'm in the same area. Right now bayou fountain is at 13.61 I told myself that if I see it hit 15 I'm going to gtfo even if it won't start flooding until 16ft

I have a lot of friends and family that live in that area you were covering today. Personally I appreciate what you did, and send thanks.

Any indication on what will happen on the other side near west coyell creek area? Back flow there?
Posted on 8/13/16 at 9:38 pm to supernovasky
Clay Cut runs behind my sisters house. Just told them to GTFO... appreciate the info

looks like storms are starting to refire east of Lafayette... if I had to guess it looks to be around the Basin
